Andy Burnham: “I want Britain to be a country where nobody is written off. Where everyone is treated with respect no matter who they…”

I was proud of the reception that the UK gave to the Ukrainian president yesterday.

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.

Through No 10 North, we are rewiring the state and I want to make sure regions in Scotland are fully part of this.

That is my view. I communicated it to the first secretary [sic] very clearly, and he has a different view.
