Andy Burnham: “I may have to ask for a little more tax at some point.”

If the UK wants to build global companies, we need to be globally competitive. To do that, we cannot have Britain's start-ups simply sell up.

I want Britain to be the country that makes the breakthrough and delivers the cure for dementia the world has been waiting for.

I’m not the last Prime Minister of the UK. I’ll be the first to rewire it to make it work properly in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and England.

Politics has become too suffocating. We need greater ambition. The country is not where it should be and nothing simple gets us out of that. We need to show a journey and a longer-term plan.
