Burnham's passionate debut and enticing view of the future – but what about today? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
ANDY BURNHAM made a powerful, passionate and emotional debut speech as Labour leader at the party conference. His critics make him out to be a nice man who won’t be able to make difficult decisions – but he made a huge call in apparently ditching the triple lock which sets the high rate at which pensions rise.

Diesel hits 199.18p as Burnham’s upbeat first year faces reality (opens the original)

Many of them will have put their heart and soul into Clayton Glass in Stanley, working there for decades and, in recent tough times, accepting pay cuts to try and get the company through. For much of the last decade, there has been nothing but good news stories coming out of Clayton Glass in Stanley
