In this week’s Q&A episode, Andy & Neil tackle the issue of drugs in prisons. How do so many drugs get in, are corrupt guards to blame, and would using sniffer dogs inside jails make a difference? They also debate whether it’s time for football clubs to contribute more towards the cost of policing matches - it currently costs the police over £70m every year in England alone. Plus they discuss how to spot an illegal children’s care home, and whether there’s a solution to the police recruitment crisis. Have a question for a future Q&A?
