In less than a month, Britain is set to get its seventh prime minister in a decade.

And, barring a political earthquake, it’s all but certain to be Andy Burnham.

Sam Coates and Anne McElvoy look at the fading prospect of challengers and likely coronation. Can Burnham really steady the ship 10 years on from the Brexit referendum?

With the battle for No 11 well under way, the duo also look at the economic agenda and what characters could form a Burnham government as the party begins to shape ideas for the next phase.
