Welcome to Episode 13 of The Opinion Brief by More in Common. Keir Starmer has resigned as Prime Minister. With Andy Burnham the clear frontrunner to take over in Number 10, we look at where a Burnham premiership would stand in the eyes of the public. We are also joined by Anand Menon, Chief Executive of UK in a Changing Europe, to discuss where public opinion stands on Brexit 10 years on from the EU referendum.

In this episode:

• Can Burnham turn things around? We break down the latest opinion polling surrounding Burnham including fresh approval ratings and voting intention. Can Burnham restore faith in politics?
• Could the UK rejoin the EU? Britons consider Brexit a failure and many are open to the idea of rejoining, but is this realistic?
• Does hayfever affect voting behaviour?
