Ben Wright is joined by the minister for energy and net zero, Polly Billington; shadow transport secretary, Richard Holden; and polling expert Joe Twyman. They discuss Andy Burnham's first week in power, his announcements on the cost of living and his use of social media to communicate his message. They also look ahead to an expected speech on social care and ask whether cross-party agreement can be found. Sienna Rodgers - deputy editor of The House magazine - brings additional expert insight. And Ben speaks to Dr Michael Spence - provost and president of University College London - about his efforts to encourage the art of "disagreeing well".
