IS WELFARE WELL UNFAIR? - Feat. Alun Cochrane

It's a welcome return for the reassuring northern good sense and humility of Alun Cochrane. I get his take on fellow northerner Andy Burnham-Brent and we try to acknowledge the positives (for now) - but also pick apart his teenage social media. Then we look at news that some teenagers are earning more on PIP for anxiety than kids who work for minimum wage (where I resist the urge to shout 'scroungers!'). In the Patron only section I ask the current trending question regarding 50k and one million pounds. CATCH ME ON MY TOUR ‘Basic Bloke 2: There’s No Bloke Without Fire’.
