Will Burnham really change Britain? One week in, doubts emerge
After one week as prime minister, Andy Burnham unveils plans on social care, devolution, and welfare, but analysts question whether his tenure marks a genuine shift or just a change in political style.
Andy Burnham entered office promising the biggest change in Britain for 40 years. One week into his premiership, he has announced new policies on social care, devolution, and welfare.
However, podcast hosts Sam and Anne ask whether these measures represent a true transformation or merely a different political style. They question if Burnham is simply continuing Keir Starmer's approach with a fresh face.
On foreign policy, Burnham is set to host Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at a British naval base later today, signaling continued support for Ukraine.
