The Policing Minister Chris Philp says that stop and search is a “vital tool” in taking knives off the streets that is “not used nearly often enough” by police. Kamal Ahmed and Camilla Tominey are joined on The Daily T by Shaun Bailey, the former Conservative candidate for London Mayor, who’s been stopped and searched himself many times but still believes in it.

Plus, the legendary broadcaster Esther Rantzen, who has been diagnosed with stage four lung cancer, tells Kamal and Camilla why she believes assisted dying should be allowed in the UK after a new BBC documentary ‘Better off Dead’, presented by actress Liz Carr, made the case against it.
