An AI-generated overview based on this broadcast's transcript.
At the Labour Party conference in Liverpool, Prime Minister Andy Burnham set out plans including ending the pensions triple lock in 2030 to help fund social care for all, while saying the state pension would continue to rise every year by at least prices or 2.5% and hold its value relative to earnings. He also promised lower electricity bills, more jobs for young people, electoral reform, and a revamp of the UK's relationship with the EU, and said he would repeal the ban on public ownership of water companies. He warned the government had to be honest about what the country could afford and referenced his father, who died a fortnight earlier, becoming emotional during the speech. In discussion, Sonia Sodha supported the triple lock change as necessary and affordable, while Michelle Donelan opposed it, questioning where the rest of the social care funding would come from and arguing pensioners were being treated as a magic money tree.
The Premier League confirmed Manchester City had been found guilty of all charges relating to serious breaches of financial rules over almost a decade. Its independent commission found the club arranged sham contracts with commercial partners to artificially inflate revenues and reduce costs by more than £900 million, filed accounts that concealed its true finances from auditors and regulators, breached Premier League and UEFA spending limits, and failed to cooperate in the investigation. Manchester City CEO Ferran Soriano declined to answer questions about the findings. The club said it was innocent, cited what it called a comprehensive body of irrefutable evidence, and planned to appeal; the Premier League sanctioning process and possible points deduction, expulsion or legal action by rival clubs were still to follow.
President Donald Trump, speaking to Sky News, again questioned British police's decision to bail five men arrested on terrorism charges near RAF Fairford at the weekend after UK police said petrol but no explosive devices were found in the vans that sparked the security alert. Trump said it was a long-standing investigation involving the United States and the UK and described those involved as serious, bad people who should not have been bailed. Sky News correspondent Mark Stone also reported that Trump had met technology leaders at the White House to discuss AI regulation and said they had signed something like a constitution, which he also signed as President.

Contested quote Andy Burnham gives first Labour conference speech as PM
Everyone wants pensions still to go up, but it's just the ratchet effect of the triple lock's time has come. Michelle? No, I think it is not the right decision to see pensioners as this magic money tree once again. The reality is that this won't pay for the full social care reforms, which I think is a good thing.

but then all this influx of cash came in and success followed but they had to follow the rules because they say that you can't just spend what you want. There were constraints but City flagrantly flouted them. The fact they were artificially inflating income by £900 million, suppressing those costs and this verdict we've been waiting for since 2018.

Charged quote Manchester City 115 financial breach charges inquiry ongoing
The Premier League confirms you cheated for nearly a decade. Do you apologise to football fans? I have nothing to say, thank you. Are you sure you can win on appeal? Is all this success, as the Premier League says, sham contracts? Is this a sham club? Are you destroying football? Thank you, thank you. Do you not have a message for football? Thank you.

Charged quote Manchester City 115 financial breach charges inquiry ongoing
What about rival clubs who we hear could potentially launch Eagle Action 2 to sue them for the lost earnings, the prize money that they could have had? It taints a whole period of football. It certainly is the biggest scandal really in modern English football against a team that has transformed things, particularly under Pep Guardiola.

Well, they didn't let him go. They put him out on bail. I assume they have him watched closely, but these were serious people, seriously bad people and they should not have done that. Not for the first time, I think, the US President getting ahead of things somewhat and I think it is certainly the case that in the UK,

and nearly 30 of the world's most powerful and influential people, by the way, not world leaders, but tech leaders were all at the White House for a meeting, for a lunch with the American President to discuss guardrails, to discuss regulation of AI or SI as the President now calls it. And after their lunch, which was private, no access for us,

and they came together and they did something that few people really, it's almost like a constitution in a way. And the biggest people in the world signed that, and I signed it as President, and it really is a form of protection. And Gillian, you can watch more of that exchange with the President on the Sky News app, and we'll be doing a Quick Take podcast,
