Newscast - Politics, Polls and Peaches

Are social care plans a vote winner or loser?
Boris Johnson’s former friend and colleague Nick Boles joins Laura, Adam and Chris from his holiday in Ibiza, to give his verdict on the government’s new tax for social care. He once proposed a very similar system himself.
And Chief Executive of Ipsos Mori Ben Page tells us about the public’s attitude to the government’s new policy and why Labour have a huge challenge if they want to beat the Conservatives at the next election.
Today’s Newscast was made by Caitlin Hanrahan with Maz Ebtehaj. Jonathan Aspinwall is the Editor.
