The Labour MP Chris Bryant is having immunotherapy after skin cancer was detected in his lung, he has said. The shadow creative industries minister said he had “every hope” of being successfully treated.

He received treatment for a melanoma found on the back of his head five years ago and the cancer in his lung was found during one of the regular scans he has had to have since then. The Labour frontbencher urged people to take skin cancer seriously and take precautions by covering up and using high-factor sun cream.
