    What is Andy Burnham's Plan to 'Fix' Social Care?

    Today, Prime Minister Andy Burnham has said he wants a major reform of the current social care system in England and set out his three-point plan to achieve it. The prime minister has brought forward a review of social care by Baroness Casey, and has asked the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats to work with him on his reforms. But what does Andy Burnham mean by a ‘National Care Service’? Why have 22 previous reviews into adult social care failed to affect change? And how will he fund the major task of fixing social care in England? Adam is joined by Alison Holt, Social Affairs Editor, Jim Reed, Health Reporter, and Ben Chu, Policy and Analysis Correspondent at BBC Verify, to comb through everything we learned - and everything we didn’t - from the Prime Minister today.

    Are Apprenticeships The Answer To Youth Unemployment?

    Today, secondary school pupils in England will be offered more technical subjects as part of education reforms led by the new Prime Minister. The courses, which will be available from year 10 onwards will be linked to local industries in the hope of giving children a clearer pathway into work. Andy Burnham says he’s keen to strengthen links between education and the workplace and these reforms come alongside a new bursary scheme which aims to remove financial barriers to accessing apprenticeships. Adam discusses the reforms, and whether they can achieve their aims, with Justine Greening, the former education secretary and founder of the Purpose Coalition which aims to improve social mobility and Shane Chowen, editor at FE Week. Plus, Adam catches up with By-Electioncast veterans Sarah Lester, editor of the Manchester Evening News and Kevin Fitzpatrick, political reporter at Radio Manchester to discuss the Manchester mayoral by-election, which goes to the polls on Thursday.
