Is Andy Burnham betting his premiership on fixing social care?

29 de julio de 2026 · 36m

Andy Burnham has set out plans to fix England’s struggling social care system - promising a new National Care Service, cross-party talks and a review designed to tackle a system he says is no longer working. But how quickly can reform happen, and who will pay for it?

In this episode, we unpack the announcement, and ask whether the new PM can finally deliver meaningful change.

Later, we're joined by Sky News' economics and data editor and of host of the 'Stuff Matters' podcast - Ed Conway - to analyse the economic challenges ahead for Burnham.
