Andy Burnham is officially the United Kingdom’s prime minister.
Burnham position as prime minister was sealed on Monday after Keir Starmer, his predecessor, formally left office.
Buckingham Palace confirmed Burnham met with King Charles who requested him to form a new administration.
In his first speech as prime minister on Downing Street, Burnham said his appointment as PM is “a moment for reflection and new resolution”.
“I hear you. We have not been good enough and we need to be better. We will be,” he said.
The prime minister said under him, Britain has to show “that we can regain our stability once again and that is our challenge”.
“We will make this moment a circuit-breaker for Britain and there will be a new political model,”he added.
Burnham said later this year, he will lay out a 10-year plan for Britain
