On this week’s episode, Peter would like to talk about the sovereignty of the Falkland Islands, and the time his dad moved a gun across the island, while Sarah wants to talk about yet another attempt on Trump’s life and why security for MPs is so lax in the UK.

And the pair pore over our latest mailbag to ask has the Starmer Project corrupted Labour? The latest update on Peter’s long-awaited book about the car (don’t hold your breath), what do the pair really think of psychology? And a teacher writes from Spain to tell us how the changing of the clocks is dumbing down her pupils.

On our reading and watch list this week:

· The Wizard Of The Kremlin – Giuliano da Empoli

· Cracked: Why Psychiatry is Doing More Harm Than Good – James Davies

· The Truth About the Drug Companies: How they deceive us and what to do about it - Marcia Angell
