What does Andy Burnham really think?
from Rock & Roll Politics with Steve Richards
I revisit an interview I did with Andy Burnham before the general election, when there was no leadership speculation as Keir Starmer was so obviously heading for victory. We explore where power lies, where power should lie, where he feels he has always stood on the political spectrum, why this is a different landscape to 1997 and much more. It gives a sense of what his priorities are likely to be as he heads towards Number 10.To join in the never-ending debate in the Rock & Roll Politics co-operative, email [email protected]• Special offer!
