Adam Boulton: UK Political Commentator on Andy Burnham becoming the UK's seventh Prime Minister in a decade, John Healey chosen as Chancellor

Andy Burnham's arrival at Number 10 Downing St is being seen as a big shift for Britain.  The former Manchester Mayor and Labour cabinet minister has become the UK's seventh Prime Minister in a decade.  He's replaced Sir Keir Starmer, who resigned after a collapse in public support.  UK political commentator Adam Boulton told Mike Hosking Burnham's cabinet appointments so far bring a very different face to the British Government.   He says that's largely due to the fact Burnham's a confident communicator compared to Starmer, who often appeared robotic.  Burnham’s pick for Chancellor has also come as a surprise, with former Defence Secretary John Healey chosen for the role.  Boulton told Hosking what’s surprising is that Healy resigned recently over wanting more defence spending, so the question is whether he’ll live up to what he was demanding at the time.  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
