He's finally set the date. This afternoon, Rishi Sunak made a surprise announcement, calling for an election on July 4. So Kamal and Camilla rushed back to the studio to give their snap reactions on why now and what happens next.

They also reflect on the MP Craig Mackinlay’s remarkable return to parliament six months on from a life-threatening battle with sepsis which led to the amputation of both of his hands and feet.
