Shazia asks, why has there been such a reaction to what actress Priyanka Chopra wore when she met Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi?

Shazia Awan talks about a photograph actress Priyanka Chopra posted on social media, of her meeting the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Also on the show, BBC Home Affairs correspondent Danny Shaw breaks down the different parties' stances on crime, terror and immigration, ahead of the election.
