Nihal asks: Is social housing in this country fit for purpose? We're asking this as questions continue to be asked about safety conditions inside Grenfell tower block. Also, Nihal is joined by Iqbal Bhana and Farah Rehman to talk about The Big Iftar event which is part of a campaign organised by The Jo Cox Foundation. ESPN Cricinfo's South Africa correspondent Firdose Moonda, former Yorkshire fast bowler Moin Ashraf and Gurman Randhawa look back at the ICC Champions Trophy tournament and look ahead to Sunday's final between arch rivals India and Pakistan. With EDL marches continuing up and down the country, Husna Wahid talks to Nihal about why she decided to approach their members and engage in conversation with them. Thai boxer Mubzz Bajwa joins Nihal to talk about how he is using his boxing skills to raise money for charity during Ramadan.
