Andy Burnham faces a make-or-break Budget next week after a gaffe-strewn first three months as Prime Minister

Andy Burnham has little to show for his first three months in No 10 beyond a £2 cap on bus fares. Fixing social care, adjusting the pensions triple lock and rejoining the EU have all been parked until after the next general election. While the economy stalled, his Chancellor, John Healey, was in Bangkok testing Thai snacks in a tuk-tuk. Next week's Budget is the first real test of whether he can deliver.

Burnham's Commons remarks risked prejudicing the trial over Ann Widdecombe's alleged murder.

He retreated after suggesting Russian interference made the Brexit referendum illegitimate.

Andrew Neil has branded him 'Bumbling Burnham' and asked whether he is 'a dud'.
