Packing a punch: Female boxers spar with politics

A group of female boxers has been sparring with politics ahead of the forthcoming general election.

Nicky Tayler puts on classes for all ages, genders and abilities at a club she runs in the Suffolk port town. They aim to boost people's fitness and improve mental wellbeing.

The former boxer's female-only class raised many issues that would affect their vote including Brexit, the environment and school discipline.

Speaking of the political climate, participant Sam Scarlett said: "It's like a playground at the minute. Nobody knows what anyone is doing."
