Burnham's radical reset plan hits economic reality

Original: Burnham’s plan for a radical reset collides with economic reality | Heather Stewart

Andy Burnham's plans for a radical political and economic reset are running into hard budgetary constraints, according to Guardian columnist Heather Stewart. The piece argues that ambitions for major public spending and reform run up against weak economic conditions and tight fiscal limits, making the promised overhaul far harder to deliver than promised, and sparking debate about the credibility of his agenda.

Why now: Burnham is a high-profile potential Labour leadership contender, so scrutiny of whether his ambitious agenda is affordable is drawing attention.
