Andy Burnham has set out his, well, radical plans to devolve power to the regions.

But these have been dismissed by the leader of the opposition this week as Old Hat.

And Kepa Badenock joins me now.

Good morrow, Mr Anal.

And may the blessings of the morning be upon your kettle bell.

Thank you very much.

Whatever you think of Andy Burnham's ideas, it's not the sort of stuff we're used to hearing from our politicians.

So is it really fair to call them old hat?

There appears to be some confusion.

When I describe a policy as old hat, that is not a criticism, it is an accolade.

How so?

Because as a low-energy weirdo with a newfound mojo, whenever I create a new policy, I wear an old hat that is specific to the idea.

For instance, the transport policy hat that I am wearing on my head right now.

That's not an old hat.

It's three hamster wheels stuck together by Blu-Tack.

This is not Blu-Tack.

It is chewing gum I took from seats on the London Underground.

LAUGHTER

Hence, it is my transport hat.

What other hats have you got?
