Progressive Passport | A Circuit Breaker Moment for Britain

This episode is now available on our YouTube channel and wherever you get your podcasts.

In the premiere episode featuring our Progressive Passport panel, we tackle Andy Burnham’s sudden rise to UK Prime Minister and his bold circuit breaker agenda aimed at reversing forty years of deindustrialization, privatization, and austerity.

We break down his "Manchesterism" political philosophy, his rapid cost-of-living interventions, and the vital lessons Canadian progressives can draw from his strategy to rebuild public trust.
