Have you ever wondered how you can become a candidate in the election?

BBC Local Live
If Theresa May's recent announcement of a snap election in June has made you yearn to be an MP, here are a few guidelines for you to consider.
You can't stand if you're:
Under 18
A member of the police forces
A member of the armed forces
A civil servant, a judge or a peer
You're subject to a bankruptcy restrictions order or a debt relief restrictions order
BBCCopyright: BBC
If none of those conditions preclude you, and you're either a British citizen, a citizen of the Republic of Ireland or a commonwealth country (with certain provisos) then you're over the first hurdle, and will need to consider these regulations:
You need a completed set of nomination forms and a deposit of £500
You also need an election agent
You probably want to plan and run a campaign
There - it's almost as simple as that. So what's stopping you? I'm off now to see how much money is in my piggy bank.

Teen's software 'behind more than one million cyber attacks'
Angus Crawford
BBC News correspondent
The Old Bailey has today heard how a Hertfordshire teenager created the software behind more than 1.7 million cyber attacks on websites around the world.
Adam Mudd, who's now 19, from Kings Langley, has already pleaded guilty to three charges of creating the malware and selling it to other people.
The hearing was told he built the "Titanium Stresser" tool on a computer in his bedroom, when he was just 15.
Today, the prosecution described how the software was used to attack the servers of Cambridge University, Sony PlayStation and XBox.
One company, Runescape, had to spend £6m protecting itself against such attacks and lost more than £180,000 in revenue, the court heard.
Mudd is said to have made £386,000 from the software. He is due to be sentenced on Tuesday.

Sam Edwards
BBC Radio Cambridgeshire
About 250 students had to be evacuated from a block of flats after fire took hold yesterday evening, the fire service has confirmed.
Earlier we told you about the blaze in the kitchen of Varsity House in the centre of Cambridge, which started on the second floor at about 19:10.
Cambs Fire and Rescue ServiceCopyright: Cambs Fire and Rescue Service
It took seven fire engines and 45 firefighters to bring the blaze, which started in an extractor fan in a cooker hood, under control.
Crews had to cut through a roof to check for hot spots and provide ventilation.
A spokesman for Cambridgeshire Fire and Rescue Service said six flats were heavily affected by smoke.
Station commander Danny Kelly said: "The actions of the crews were extremely good because they were faced with a large amount of people evacuating into the street, and it is quite congested down there as it is right in the centre of Cambridge."
No-one was injured and the cause of the fire was confirmed as accidental.
George Pippas was riding past the student flats on Occupation Road in Cambridge last night when he saw the emergency services, and stopped to take these photos.
