Andy Burnham said he was levelling with the nation, as he set out his vision for the future in a conference speech packed with policy proposals - and emotion. We assess the prime minister's pitch in Liverpool, and his plan to unpick the pensions triple lock. Also in the programme: The party leading the presidential polls in France is caught up in a row over allegations of historic anti-Semitism. Plus we head to Utah, to speak to the lawyer of a man who has been freed after nearly four decades on death row.
