Police officers are increasingly forced to spend their time doing jobs they were never meant to - and that other public services are simply too stretched to respond to. This week, Neil and Andy discuss the intervention by Britain's top cop, Met Police Commissioner Sir Mark Rowley, who's called for police to be allowed to focus on fighting crime rather than social work.
Neil and Andy analyse what difference that would make, and whether the Commissioner has the Home Secretary's support in calling for wholesale police reform. The pair also reveal the mental health impact for officers who are forced to deal with situations they haven't been trained in.
Plus, as the country marks twenty years since the 7/7 bombings, Neil reflects on the impact British foreign policy had on radicalising the bombers, and explains the lessons which still need to be learned from the tragedy two decades on.
