from The Julia Hartley-Brewer Show
Andy Burnham stuns Westminster at PMQs, declaring that "national security can't come at the expense of social security" — seeming proof that Labour has become the welfare party.

Also: Trump's astonishing $5,000 election promise, and the Miliband-Israel sanctions row.Julia Hartley-Brewer broadcasts on Talk from Monday to Thursday, 10AM to 1PM. Available on YouTube and streaming platforms, along with DAB+ radio and your smart speaker. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
