Boris Johnson and Jeremy Corbyn paid tribute to the victims of Friday's London Bridge terror attack at a vigil in London this morning. Campaigning was briefly suspended in London after the attack, with a row quickly breaking out between Labour and the Conservatives over killer Usman Khan's early release from prison. During the last general election campaign, when the Manchester Arena and London Bridge attacks happened, the parties suspended campaigning for longer - so why are things different this time around? Daniel and Shehab gets Robert's take. As we get closer to polling day (10 days, to be exact), we're continuing to catch up with ITV's political correspondents based around the country to find out what's happening in their patch and the key races in their area we should be keeping an eye on that could decide the outcome of the election. Plus, Daniel reminds us of a memorable moment from a past election campaign involving David Cameron which, four years on, he still can't get over. We’ll bring you a new episode of Calling Peston every weekday around 5pm throughout the election campaign. Don’t forget to subscribe - and if you like what you hear, do rate us and leave a review.
