MP James Brokenshire's recovery from lung cancer

At the end of last year everything changed for the then Northern Ireland Secretary James Brokenshire when he discovered he had lung cancer and would need to step down from government.

The Old Bexley and Sidcup MP spoke to Daily Politics reporter Greg Dawson about his illness and recovery.
