Has Burnham changed tack on Russia?
Published 1 month ago
Description
Is Britain about to re-engage with the world in a more meaningful way than any time in the past decade?
After a frantic 24 hours in New York, Andy Burnham declared to the UN: “Britain is back.”
But what does that mean in practice? And after a rebuke over rhetoric on Russia from Donald Trump, is the new PM taking a different stance to Moscow from his predecessor?
Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy unpack the PM’s message on Ukraine, the US and the future of AI – and ask whether these themes will shape his first Labour conference speech as Prime Minister.
