It's long been seen as politically untouchable – but Andy Burnham has finally fired the starting gun on reforms to the state pension triple lock.First brought in by David Cameron's coalition government, the measure of increasing pension payments by the higher of inflation, average wage rises or 2.5% a year was introduced to offset years of underfunding.But the new prime minister has used his first party conference speech as Labour leader to put the triple lock on the negotiating table – against the wishes of the unions, opposition parties and plenty of his own supporters.So, how does the triple lock work and what could take its place? What is the cost to the country and is reforming the system as straightforward as it appears?Niall Paterson is joined by Claire Moffat, a pension and tax expert at Royal London.Have you got a question for Niall?

Who are you more likely to believe, Donald Trump or a farmer from the Cotswolds?Five UK nationals have been arrested on suspicion of explosives and terrorism offences after a major incident was declared at an RAF airbase in Gloucestershire over the weekend.But they were later released on bail, as counter-terror police remain “open-minded” about whether the incident is linked to a foreign state such as Iran.So, why did the US president claim the group had been “under investigation” for a long time – while a local resident insists she was the one who alerted the police after spotting a group of masked men?What do we know about this investigation? And what does it tell us about how the UK is being targeted by proxies?Niall Paterson is joined by Sky's home affairs editor Jason Farrell.Have you got a question for Niall? Email us: why@sky.uk

Ed Sheeran is used to thousands of people singing his songs back at him. But last week, he found himself addressing his audience in a very different way.After Macklemore left Sheeran's tour following his comments about the war in Gaza, other performers on the bill also pulled out.

Looking visibly upset, he addressed the crowd and apologised.But for a singer who has built his career on being the ‘nice guy', can Ed Sheeran come back from this?

Recollection may vary, but the facts do not. That's something that was lost on Princess Diana's brother in his new book about his sister's life - which managed to squeeze in a mistake about Piers Morgan amongst its bombshell claims about the King. The former Daily Mirror editor is now suing Earl Spencer and calling for the book to be pulped. So, what checks take place when a memoir is written? And why does the format allow people to publish unproven claims? Niall is joined by the journalist Helen Brown, who writes about culture for The Telegraph. Have you got a question for Niall?

It was a hole-in-one for the republican cause – the US president using a trip to his golf course in County Clare to lend his weight to the fight for a united Ireland. The timing couldn't have been better for the first ministers of Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales, as they met to discuss further cooperation in the campaign for independence. But despite Donald Trump's insistence that he would “love to see” a united Ireland – even if that means the break-up of the United Kingdom – Westminster should not worry just yet. Niall Paterson has been speaking to Sky's Ireland correspondent, Stephen Murphy, about why there is not as much of an appetite on either side of the Irish border for reunification as you might expect.

Don't worry, AI's not preparing to wipe out humanity with a Terminator-style nuclear Armageddon – that's just not its style. But could it develop a virus that does the job instead? Well, that seems more of a possibility.... And speaking of odds, both former and current employees of tech giant Anthropic put the chances of AI ending all human life at roughly 10 percent. They only differ on the timescale. With seemingly no end to the breathtaking pace of development, is it too late for governments to intervene? And as experts increasingly acknowledge AI could cause existential change, how exactly could that happen? Niall Paterson is joined by Sky's technology correspondent, Rowland Manthorpe.

Send us Fan MailIn this week's episode of In Your Nature, Ricky and Niall are diving into the world of bird nests. Whether the nest is on the ground, in a cavity, or reused from another species, nests are just as unique as the birds who use them. Long before a chick is hatched or a egg is laid, birds pick specific spots for their nests and to build their families.Learn how, when, and who is building nests across Ireland.In Ireland, nests and breeding birds are legally protected from March 1 to August 31. As curious as we, or our pets, may be about how a nest is doing, it's important to never disturb a nest. Even minor disturbances can be detrimental to the success of that bird's breeding season. In Your Nature features Ricky Whelan, Biodiversity Officer with Offaly County Council, and Niall Hatch of BirdWatch Ireland, and is edited by Ann-Marie Kelly.The series is supported by Offaly and Westmeath County Councils, the Heritage Council's Ceangal programme, and the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage.For more about BirdWatch Ireland, visit www.birdwatchireland.ie.
Send us Fan MailIn Your Nature with Niall Hatch and Ricky Whelan is back! Kicking off the season at Bog of Allen Nature Reserve in Co. Kildare, Niall and Ricky meet up with butterfly guru, Jesmond Harding. The three explore the reserve while covering a range of topics, from fascinating wing adaptations that trick hungry predators to specific plants required for the survival of different species. Like much of Ireland's wildlife, butterfly species are on the decline. Even our most common species are in trouble. Out of the 30 butterfly species found in Ireland, only 15 have substantial data, with records only formally starting in 2008, all of which show a decline in population. Bog of Allen Nature Reserve is the perfect place to talk butterfly—two-thirds of Ireland's butterfly species can be found at this location. Within minutes, Jesmond names off several of the species they can see, including Common Blues, Peacocks (not the bird), Silver-washed Fritillary and much more. But it's not just the butterflies that make this area unique, it's the combination of plants, trees and grasses that make this place a butterfly haven.In Your Nature features Ricky Whelan, Biodiversity Officer with Offaly County Council, and Niall Hatch of BirdWatch Ireland, and is edited by Ann-Marie Kelly.
