Guardian Economics says it has been a month since Andy Burnham became prime minister, with polls suggesting a short term boost often described as a “Burnham bounce.”

The outlet notes that momentum from early polling may not last, as the months ahead are likely to force Burnham into difficult and potentially unpopular decisions.

Those choices, according to Guardian Economics, will be a test of how serious he is about delivering the changes he believes the country needs.
