Episode Details

Andy Burnham just took the reins as Prime Minister and is already shaking things up with bold, people-focused moves: slashing VAT on electricity bills to save households £45 a year and capping bus fares at just £2 per journey starting January. Backing up his promises with real savings, he’s redirecting climate funds and energy budget savings to fund these changes — all while keeping Labour’s tax pledges intact. Social media’s buzzing with praise, calling it the most impactful two days in years, with families already crunching numbers on school trips. But the push isn’t over — commuters are demanding action on train fares too, as the real cost-of-living pressure continues.
