Where's Burnham really on welfare reform?

Having more than a million young people not in education, employment or training is an “economic catastrophe” according to the prime minister. So, what will the government do about it?

Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy examine how the report’s findings could complicate the government’s plans for reform.

Plus, Anne has the latest on the protests in France and a stark warning over the political cost of attempting to shrink the size of the state.
