Andy Burnham Has Avoided Keir Starmer's Biggest Mistake | Anna Mikhailova

"The fact that he hasn't had to announce a detailed policy platform... is actually a big strength for him." Unlike Keir Starmer and other previous Labour leaders, Andy Burnham arrives in Downing Street without months of leadership pledges, leaving him with greater political flexibility but immediate decisions over his cabinet and policy direction, says Times Radio’s political editor Anna Mikhailova. Anna Mikhailova was speaking to Kate McCann and Stig Abell on Times Radio Breakfast. Listen live every Monday-Thursday, 6-10am.
