Burnham's Britain: Reset or Business as Usual?
About this episode
In this episode of Unconventional Knowledge, GIS managing editor Andrew Kureth speaks with historian Steve Davies about whether Andy Burnham’s premiership marks a genuine political reset for Britain.
The discussion looks at Burnham’s vision of a “productive state,” reform of Britain’s institutions, devolution, energy policy and the fiscal pressures facing his government. Davies also examines what Burnham could mean for relations with the EU, the United States and NATO.
A look at whether Burnham can fundamentally reshape Britain, or whether institutional inertia and economic reality will produce more of the same.
