Summary
Andy Burnham is set to become the UK’s next Prime Minister, taking over from Keir Starmer in a swift political transition. Just sworn in this month after winning a special election, Burnham will formally assume power today when King Charles III asks him to form a government. Starmer, who led for two years, will resign at Buckingham Palace before Burnham steps into the role — marking the seventh PM since 2016 and a major shift for Labour. Burnham’s first address will come from Downing Street’s iconic black door, as the party hopes his leadership brings stability to a turbulent political landscape.
