Meet the New Boss: Socialist Andy Burnham Installed as British Prime Minister, Announces '10 Year Plan' to Fix Country

Veteran Westminster swamp creature turned 'King of the North' political chameleon Andy Burnham has been given the keys to Number 10 Downing Street, officially taking over the office of Prime Minister on Monday after Sir Keir Starmer was forced to resign just over two years after taking power. Sir Keir Starmer formally resigned as Prime Minister to make way for former Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham, who became the seventh prime minister in a decade, and fifth to take power in less than four years. Burnham said: 'We will take power out of here and carry it into every postcode in the land... build a new economy where we put life's essentials back under stronger public control.' The article characterizes Burnham's plan as promising a 'Soviet-style 10-year plan' and refers to him as a 'self-described socialist.'
