In this episode, I discuss pressing societal issues with Leilani Dowding, focusing on the complexities of free speech and a concerning two-tier justice system highlighted by a Labour councillor's acquittal. We shift to the immigration crisis, examining rising crime rates linked to asylum seekers and the silenced voices of community members like Lubna Zaidi.
