Terrorism has hit Britain once more: seven people were killed and 48 injured in central London on Saturday night, but the election continues. Theresa May in Downing Street declared ‘enough is enough’ while Jeremy Corbyn warns ‘you can’t protect Britain on the cheap’. After we recorded this episode Jeremy Corbyn called for Theresa May to resign for presiding over a decline in police funding while in her role as home secretary.
Joining Owen Jones and Jonathan Freedland in the studio today is the editor of Prospect Tom Clark, host of the magazine’s Headspace podcast.
