Burnham

The new mayor was established under the previous Tory administration in 2023 to push powers out of Westminster, copying the blueprint of London Mayor Sadiq Khan and Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham.

The fair’s chief architect, Daniel Hudson Burnham, created a wildly expensive campus of Beaux Arts white buildings, brought in designers including Frederick Law Olmsted, and wowed millions with a large-scale incandescent light display.

Writing in the Times on Monday, Labour's Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham urged "caution" on benefit changes.

Meanwhile, Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham said while they did not have a budget for "capital repairs" for schools he would look at convening "relevant players" needed to get a solution.

Protesters have demanded to speak to Mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham at a demonstration over grooming gangs and child sex abuse cases in the region.
