Andy Burnham is now the British Prime Minister but, Phil asks, aside from convening cabinet meetings in the north, will he do anything different to his predecessor. No, he will follow the same neoclassical economics approach as all Prime Ministers, with an obsession for balancing the books, rather than developing creative outcomes to distribute wealth and grow the economy. In short, it’s a slightly more attractive head, stuck on the same ugly body, he says. So what about Count Binface’s contribution to UK politics? Steve’s verdict: well, he might be trapped inside a dustbin, but its better than being trapped in an economics textbook! So, that all said, is there anything positive to from this change is stewardship of the nation?
