Having taken the helm of the Labour Party last Friday after Starmer’s resignation, Burnham is stepping into leadership amid significant political shifts. Sir Keir Starmer stepped down from Number 10 Downing Street following a series of poor local election results and was ultimately unseated after Burnham’s victory in the Makerfield by-election.
