Newscast · What is Andy Burnham's Plan to 'Fix' Social Care? · 29 Jul 2026 podcast

Don't have cross-party talks when a solution is emerging, again, which is what we did back then.

Build it with people.

So do it now.

Get people in now and start talking, understanding the different perspectives.

I don't know whether it's possible to find agreement, but let's give it a try.

My position on assisted dying, I...

I take the view that that debate, and I don't say that there shouldn't be a debate at some point about those issues.

Personally, I think there's something that needs to happen first, and that's the fixing of the funding of palliative care and social care.

I think it is very challenging to introduce that wider debate

in a context of people not receiving that care and having the peace of mind about that care.

This is a global production.

I think social care in England is as unfair as American health care.

The vulnerable pay with everything and it can completely leave them with nothing.

Firstly, you have to do more with what you've got.

But I think Louise indicated some of what we would want to do in the fullest sense will require difficult, difficult decisions.

But we will be honest with people about those.

We will put them before the country at the right time.

And we will hopefully proceed with people's consent.

I'm Andrew.

I'm Andy.
