Summary
This week Carl Kinsella and I had lots of interesting stories to discuss from the results of the UK election to what's happening with our by-election, whether we need to be worried about Hantavirus, an unsurprising report from MSF about Gaza and a primer on why the World Cup is relevant to global news this year.
