Just in case you missed me talking yesterday about a group of MPs who are releasing charity single in aid of Jo Cox - you can have a listen here:
The band, MP-Four, which includes the East Yorkshire MP Sir Greg Knight and former Brigg and Goole MP Ian Cawsey, are supporting a charity version of The Rolling Stones song in aid of a charity in the name of the murdered Yorkshire MP Jo Cox.
They are hoping to hit the top spot in the charts with a Christmas Number One.
