Shazia asks: Was Boris Johnson wrong to make comments about alcohol in a Gurdwara? Also, Shazia is joined by a panel of guests to discuss the future of Sri Lanka on the 8th anniversary of the end of the civil war. Writer and journalist Jamie Bartlett chats to Shazia about his book Radicals - which looks at whether views that were once considered extreme, are now entering mainstream politics. This week's Soch of the Week comes from journalist Shaheen Sattar, who says working hard to get high grades in school helped shape her career.
