Description

As Liz Truss defends tanking the economy, the Government is wrangling whether to keep giving more money to OAPs. Is a pension crisis looming? Plus, Starmer’s been trotting around the world in an attempt to fix some of the damage of the last 13 years – will the likes of the EU listen? Or have we pushed it too far?


“Starmer wants to see a cultural change in our attitudes to the EU - to take the toxicity out of that relationship.” – Ros Taylor

“I think borders are going to become much more important for the EU in the future.” – Ros Taylor

“To be clear I don’t think I’m going to retire, Alex. Let alone my children.” – Hannah Fearn

“This is a very live issue for people in their 20s, 30s and 40s…” – Hannah Fearn

“There aren’t any dinner parties, Liz. We’re all too skint to hold them.” – Hannah Fearn
