Andy Burnham: “If we don't do it, the NHS will collapse under the weight of trying to care for people who've really not really needed…”

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.

In my view, all political parties in the UK should do everything they can to support the two-state solution between Israel and Palestine.

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.

If the UK wants to build global companies, we need to be globally competitive. To do that, we cannot have Britain's start-ups simply sell up.
