Episode Details

Andy Burnham’s first day as Prime Minister signals a bold new era of politics — no surprise elections, no Whitehall dominance, and a commitment to devolution. He’s ditching Westminster’s old guard by splitting his time between London and Manchester, slashing travel costs, and bringing key ministers north to prove power should be shared. Burnham, who admits he misses being mayor, is laser-focused on delivering real change: capping bus fares, cutting VAT on electricity, scrapping the digital ID scheme, and ending rough sleeping nationwide. He’s rolling up his sleeves for a nationwide listening tour, confident his grassroots experience prepared him for this moment — and ready to prove the public’s cynicism is misplaced by turning policy into progress.
