Barring any last-minute surprises, Andy Burnham will become Prime Minister three weeks today.
But what is his 10-year mission for the country and how will he achieve it?
In his first major speech in Manchester, Burnham will set out his plans for the economy, welfare and devolution with a pledge to deliver “good growth in every postcode.”

Plus, with Keir Starmer’s authority in office draining can he get the long-awaited Defence Investment Plan through without any hiccups from his military chiefs?
