Andy Burnham: “I have not accepted that it is impossible to do more to prevent dangerous criminals being released early.”

This investment goes hand in hand with our plans for a National Care Service, helping ensure that people living with dementia get the care and support they need.

Politics has become too suffocating. We need greater ambition. The country is not where it should be and nothing simple gets us out of that. We need to show a journey and a longer-term plan.

We can do it, and we can be the nation in the next 10 years that… does find the cure for cancer, that does make the breakthrough on dementia, or indeed on nuclear fusion.

I want Britain to be the country that makes the breakthrough and delivers the cure for dementia the world has been waiting for.
