This week's episode feels a little different, as if you haven't been paying attention... a UK general election has been called! With Brits set to head to the polls on 4th July, Ed and Becca set their fixer the biggest challenge so far: outlining how the next Government can fix the country.
Assistant Editor of the Spectator, Isabel Hardman says it's time to sort out social care, rip up Britain's planning laws and for Parliament to take a good long look at itself.

On this week's episode, Ed and Becca discuss a more serious topic and the terrifying rise of knife crime in the UK. They are joined by activist and campaigner Faron Paul, who is on a one man mission to make Britain's streets safer. He runs a nationwide knife amnesty, offering vouchers in return for weapons being handed to him. During his interview he asks:
Are prison sentences tough enough?
Are we doing enough to prevent the purchase of weapons?
Why don't we license knives like we do guns?

Should we just be building more?
How can we empower local councils to drive change?
Is breaking into second homes the answer?
And crucially, how many times has Andrew visited Didcott?
