Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Andy Burnham Set To Become Labour Leader

Caption: Andy Burnham Set To Become Labour Leader. Andy Burnham is set to be confirmed as Labour leader after securing the backing of hundreds of MPs and several trade unions. Burnham will be formally appointed at a special party conference before becoming prime minister on Monday. In his first speech as leader, he is expected to promise a government focused on boosting economic growth across the UK and fixing problems he says politics has neglected. He has also pledged to shift more power away from Westminster by creating a "No 10 North”. Attention is now turning to his first cabinet, with speculation continuing over who will become chancellor. Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is among those tipped for the role. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
