Shaun Bailey, Conservative candidate for London Mayor, touches down on Planet Normal, alongside Telegraph columnists, Allison Pearson and Liam Halligan. The former Special Advisor to the PM tells Allison why we’re in for a “summer of discontent”, why Labour hasn’t been able to curb London’s knife crime crisis and how coming out as a black Conservative is seen as an act of bravery. Oh – and how he found love over a Müller Corner…

Plus, Allison and Liam lament Leicester’s second lockdown and question whether a Wimbledon-style queueing system is the way to get Britain back to the pub.
