We\u2019ve got to get on with the job,\u201d Carns said as he backed Burnham\u2019s candidacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a major speech in June, Burnham pledged to deliver \u201cthe biggest rebalancing of power our country has seen\u201d, promising to put authority in the hands of people and communities best placed to use it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe need a new determination to raise the living standards of every single person in this land,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAnd we must accept that to do that, to fix the economy and the country, we need to change politics and we need to do it now,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starmer, who had faced months of pressure over policy reversals and questions about his leadership decisions, announced on June 22 that he was resigning after losing the confidence of Labour MPs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His resignation came shortly after Burnham won a by-election that allowed him to return to parliament and launch what had been widely expected to become a leadership challenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the same day Starmer announced his resignation, Burnham was sworn in as an MP again after previously representing a parliamentary seat from 2001 to 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u2018A breath of fresh air\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following his return to parliament, around 200 Labour MPs gathered with Burnham for a group photograph in Westminster, signalling their expectation that he would succeed Starmer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Former health secretary Wes Streeting also announced that he was withdrawing his leadership ambitions and supporting Burnham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Surveys suggest Burnham, who is viewed as slightly to the left of the more centrist Starmer, is Labour\u2019s most popular politician.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many Labour MPs believe he could help the party regain support from Nigel Farage\u2019s anti-immigration Reform UK party ahead of the next general election, expected in 2029.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Reform UK has led Labour in national opinion polls for more than a year, although its advantage has narrowed in recent weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Burnham has pledged to maintain fiscal discipline and reduce the country\u2019s rising welfare costs, while also reassuring financial markets by committing to the government\u2019s existing borrowing limits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He has also proposed establishing a \u201cNo. 10 North\u201d office to coordinate greater devolution of powers, using a reference to the prime minister\u2019s official address at 10 Downing Street.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One Labour MP, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said the party was right to \u201croll the dice\u201d on Burnham, adding that \u201che couldn\u2019t be worse than Starmer\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI hope he\u2019s a breath of fresh air,\u201d the lawmaker told AFP.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another Labour MP, also speaking anonymously, said he supported Burnham but expressed concern that he would have only a few weeks to prepare for government if he became prime minister.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>LONDON: Veteran politician Andy Burnham moved a step closer to becoming the United Kingdom\u2019s next prime minister on Thursday as nominations officially opened for the election of a new Labour&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5649,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[2509,1023,1895],"class_list":["post-5648","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-world","tag-andy-burnham","tag-labour-party","tag-united-kingdom"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.9 -
