## Resource

Andy Burnham is poised to become the next Prime Minister within weeks, after Sir Keir Starmer’s surprise resignation and Wes Streeting’s decisive backing — leaving Burnham seemingly unopposed. With a leadership race set to conclude by mid-July, Burnham and Streeting unite to push forward, framing this as a moment to deliver real change, not squabble over minor differences. Starmer, stepping aside after internal party consultation, pledges full support for his successor, while the timeline aims for a new leader in place by September — but Burnham could be confirmed as early as July 17th if he secures enough nominations.
