Andy Burnham: “I’m listening to small business owners so we can work together to deliver jobs and growth in every postcode.”

During my first week in office, I told the First Minister that I wanted to work with him to spread opportunities to communities across Scotland's regions and cities.

Obviously, it’s been a difficult few days for President Zelensky, and that’s why I invited him to the UK to give him that lift, and to see what more we could do.

This is me making an offer to the Scottish Government. With us working together, there is no limit to what we can achieve for the Scottish people.

It is quite clear once again to the world who the aggressor is in this conflict, and we will use whatever influence we have got as the UK to bring the parties together behind President Zelensky and Ukraine.
