Andy Burnham: “We will have the courage to fix the big things that politics has neglected.”

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.

We obviously have close conversations with our US counterparts, and what I’m going to do is build that bridge and make sure that we’re still all working together to support Ukraine.

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.
