Andy Burnham has blamed Brexit for the “UK’s woes”, reports The Times. He also pointed the finger at Margaret Thatcher for “a decade of low growth”, says The Guardian. “No wonder Kemi mocked him for ‘living in the past’”, says the Daily Mail. The two party leaders had a “historic battle”, says Metro, but Burnham’s “Commons debut” as PM was “overshadowed by a market rout”, says The Telegraph. “Phew! What scorchers,” says the Daily Star after 2026 was named the UK’s “hottest summer”.
