UK PM Burnham holds first cabinet meeting, pledges cost-of-living government
New UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham held his first cabinet meeting on July 21, declaring he would lead a "cost-of-living government" and announcing an energy tax cut. He simultaneously called for fiscal discipline, drawing scepticism from critics who question whether scrapping former PM Keir Starmer's digital ID scheme can adequately fund the VAT reduction. Burnham replaced Starmer as Labour leader and prime minister.
