## Resource

In this episode of The Daily T , Tim Stanley and Poppy Coburn are joined by Associate Editor Gordon Rayner and Royal Editor Hannah Furness to discuss the latest in Prince Harry’s legal costs. The Duke of Sussex and his co-claimants face a potential legal bill of more than £18m after their “speculative” High Court privacy claim against the Daily Mail’s publisher was wholly dismissed. Tim and Poppy also react to Andy Burnham’s speech addressing Britain’s social care crisis, as he set out his ambition to create a national care service based on the NHS. But as The Telegraph revealed, a new income tax is being considered among the options to fund this plan, so is the new Prime Minister about to U-turn on a Labour manifesto pledge already?
