The Labour Party’s new leader, Andy Burnham, is no stranger to politics.
But his rise to the top has been unconventional.
He takes the reins as many in the United Kingdom are preoccupied with weak economic growth, the rising cost of living, and debate about immigration.
Beyond Britain’s borders, he’ll face foreign policy challenges, including the conflicts in Ukraine and Iran.
Burnham says he’ll be a different kind of politician and will reset how the UK is governed.
So, what does that mean for its role and position in the world?
