Why is capping bus fares one of Andy Burnham’s first priorities? In today’s episode, James explores how affordable public transport can mean the difference between getting to work, attending a medical appointment or simply being able to get out of the house.
Then, a stark conversation about the reality of running out of money before payday. Callers share what it means to go without essentials — from food to toilet rolls and tampons — and James asks why so many people still refuse to acknowledge the precariousness facing millions of households.
