## Resource

Andy Burnham has become the UK’s newest Prime Minister, marking the seventh leader in just ten years. In his first major speech outside Downing Street, he pledged to unite the nation, rebuild the economy, and tackle soaring living costs while boosting youth employment. Acknowledging the turbulence of recent leadership, Burnham vowed his generation will deliver stability and restore public trust. He outlined bold plans to expand council housing, end rough sleeping, and prioritize care services — while clarifying that his policies aren’t simply about raising taxes. His rise follows Sir Keir Starmer’s proud resignation, who formally stepped down after meeting the King, leaving the stage for Burnham’s vision of a renewed, resilient Britain.
