Andy Burnham is the bravest politician in Britain for ending the triple lock, writes James Hanson | LBC (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Burnham says the triple lock will be ‘adjusted’ from April 2030 - but make no mistake, he’s scrapped it By announcing the end of the triple lock from April 2030, the Prime Minister has taken a massive political risk. The policy, which guarantees the state pension rises each year by whichever is highest of 2.5%, inflation or earnings, was justified when it was introduced by the coalition government, but it has long since done its job. While the state pension has been protected, and in several yea
Go on, Andy - make my day and scrap the triple lock, writes James Hanson | LBC (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The triple lock is the most blatant example of how successive governments have entrenched generational inequality If the rumours are true, Andy Burnham might be about to scrap the triple lock. Hallelujah. If he goes ahead and announces as much during his keynote speech to the Labour party conference this afternoon, I might even streak naked through the streets of Liverpool in celebration. That’s not because I wish misery upon pensioners, it’s because I am fed up with older voters being consisten

It’s time to face reality: Brits aren’t as sick as they claim In the 70s, Britain developed an unfortunate nickname: the sick man of Europe.

But like all freedoms, it should come with responsibilities - and it’s time for that to include the need to show your face. The issue is back in the news because of the recent anti-migrant protests in Dover and Portsmouth, in which large groups of men, dressed in black and wearing balaclavas, blocked roads and clashed with police. Speaking on LBC last night, the former Conservative
A man who needs to be told rape is wrong should not be allowed in Britain, writes James Hanson | LBC (opens the original)
Read excerpt
If Labour believes there is an increased risk of asylum seekers committing violent sexual crimes, why are we letting them into the country before we’ve had a chance to establish their identity and immigration status? When was the last time you had to be told not to rape someone? Or not to have sex with a child? Or not to beat up your wife? You’d hope this would all go without saying, but it’s spelled out in black and white in the Home Office’s new advice booklet for asylum seekers. The official
