Nuisance phone calls and text action wanted by MP

Unwanted phone calls and texts from firms trying to sell anything from insurance to double glazing are leaving Britain "under siege" says a Lib Dem MP.

Mike Crockart is calling for one regulator to deal with sales teams bombarding people, even those who have opted not to receive such sales calls, as he explains in his soapbox film.
