Reaction to Burnham's plan to fund social care by ending pensions triple lock

Robert Peston and Julie Etchingham react to Andy Burnham’s first Labour Conference speech as Prime Minister.

Robert breaks down the announcement that Labour will drop the triple-lock on pensions if it wins the next election, including whether it will be enough to fund a new national social care service.

Stood right at the front in the hall, Robert also explains what happened when the Prime Minister was lost for words mid-speech.

Julie and Robert also analyse the announcement of a new commission on electoral reform and Burnham’s ‘tease’ on the UK’s future relationship with the EU.
