Burnham Seeks Cross-Party Deal On Social Care. Prime Minister Andy Burnham has invited the leaders of the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats to talks aimed at finding a long-term solution to England's social care crisis. Burnham is expected to argue that meaningful reform can only be achieved through cross-party agreement and has asked Kemi Badenoch and Sir Ed Davey to take part in discussions on Wednesday. Sir Ed will attend remotely, while the Conservatives will instead be represented by shadow health secretary Stuart Andrew after Badenoch was unable to attend. Last week, Burnham warned that the NHS would eventually collapse without major changes to social care and said he was prepared to spend whatever political capital was needed to deliver lasting reform. Reform UK and the Green Party were not invited to the talks.
