In this episode of The Daily T, Tim Stanley and Poppy Coburn dissect the early days of Andy Burnham’s premiership. From his nervous media appearances and regional presentation style to his controversial split-week at “Number 10 North” in Manchester, they ask whether “Burnhamism” represents genuine reform or simply continuity Keir Starmer in a new outfit.

In the second half of the show, Tim and Poppy look at the impending crackdown on youth sickness benefits as the PM seeks out the billions he intends to spend on social care and defence. They evaluate the proposed Dutch-inspired scheme to encourage “Neets” into work, and examine whether government policy or a broader culture of “arrested development” is truly to blame.≠
