Robert Peston and Julie Etchingham react to Andy Burnham's first Labour Conference speech as Prime Minister.
Robert breaks down the announcement that Labour will drop the triple-lock on pensions if it wins the next election, including whether it will be enough to fund a new national social care service.
Stood right at the front in the hall, Robert also explains what happened when the Prime Minister was lost for words mid-speech.
Julie and Robert also analyse the announcement of a new commission on electoral reform and Burnham's 'tease' on the UK's future relationship with the EU.
