## Resource

Andy Burnham, the only declared successor to Sir Keir Starmer, is poised to become Britain’s next prime minister as early as mid-July, unveiling a bold, radical vision to dismantle the “broken” Westminster system. His plan centers on shifting power to local councils and launching “Number 10 North” — a policy hub outside London — to rebalance resources across the UK. Drawing on his Greater Manchester mayoral experience, Burnham promises a 10-year push for reindustrialization, urban regeneration, and affordable housing, while notably sidestepping specifics on healthcare, immigration, and foreign policy. Critics call his speech aspirational but vague, lacking concrete figures or detailed strategies — yet his ambition to reshape Britain’s political landscape is undeniable.
