British Prime Minister Andy Burnham’s leadership is being put to the test.
At the governing Labour Party’s annual conference, members appear hopeful that he can deliver solutions to the challenges facing the country.

Those are among the challenges standing in the way of Burnham fulfilling his pledges.
So, is Burnham up to the job?
