Burnham addresses Labour conference for the first time as prime minister - UK politics live

PM expected to call for a debate on the pension triple lock in his speech

• Burnham to signal willingness to look at scrapping pension triple lock to fund social care

Angela Rayner, the housing secretary, has apparently confirmed that Andy Burnham will float the prospect of getting rid of the pensions triple lock to help fund the creation of an NHS-style care service.

Asked about the prospect on Sky’s Electoral Dysfunction podcast, Rayner said that Burnham was “absolutely right to start the conversation” and that he was being “brave”.

The high principle on this is that people have paid in all their lives. They are willing, I think, to look at that.

What they don’t want is what they consider to be, quite frankly, incompetent politicians that are going to take something from us to fill a black hole.

When we met with Andy [Burnham] this week, it certainly wasn’t mentioned.

But I do think that it’s important that Labour make sure that working-class people know that they’re on their side, and this would be a direction of travel that would say the opposite to that.

What I understood the national care service to be was a universal benefit: everybody paid in and everybody gets out, and that is what actually the principle of that is.

Going to a group of people who are getting around £12,500 a year in order to pay for it to take away their security is wrong.

RAF Fairford: Rubio says ‘foreign actor’ behind suspected plot as some evacuated residents begin to return home - latest updates

US secretary of state and Donald Trump express concerns about decision to bail suspects; some residents reported as hesitant to return home

• Rubio says foreign actor was ‘clearly’ behind suspected RAF Fairford plot

• Tell us: have you been affected by the incident at RAF Fairford?

Former national co-ordinator for UK counter-terrorism policing Nick Aldworth said investigators make bail decisions based on risk rather than investigative or geopolitical concerns.

His comments come as US president Donald Trump had earlier said he was “surprised” the five men had been freed on bail.

The provision of bail is set from a concrete foundation devoid of political or even investigative influence.

A custody officer will determine if those in custody will present any of a number of statutory risks and if they do not, then bail is usually granted if there is a need to conduct further investigation.

I have every confidence that if the police have released these individuals on bail, that they do not pose any ongoing risks to the public at large. The rest will undoubtedly come out in the ongoing investigation.
