PMQs: How Burnham Has Changed It

November 11, 2026 · 45 min

Show notes

Kemi Badenoch asked punchy questions of Andy Burnham at PMQs, challenging him on his 'ludicrous' energy policy and his 10-year plan. But with Burnham a more agile and personable performer than his predecessor Keir Starmer, is Badenoch struggling to adapt?


Hugo Rifkind unpacks the action from the chamber with The Times' Chief Political Commentator Patrick Maguire and former adviser to Tony Blair and Gordon Brown, Theo Bertram.
