Andy Burnham has now been Prime Minister for 100 days after Sir Keir Starmer bowed to overwhelming pressure and quit. The former mayor of Greater Manchester arrived in Downing Street promising to transform the UK.

Since grabbing the keys to No.10, Mr Burnham has removed VAT from household electricity bills, announced a £2 cap to bus fares on some services in England, pledged to end rough sleeping and proposed a “national care service”. But he is also taking an axe to the triple lock pensions guarantee and reopening the Brexit debate.

So after 100 days of the Burnham premiership, what do you think? Is he doing a good job as Prime Minister? Vote in our poll and join the debate in the comments section.

Pollsters from Opinium have said Mr Burnham is the only party leader with a positive net approval rating, outpacing Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK’s Nigel Farage.

A poll published earlier in October by YouGov reported 46% of Britons view Mr Burnham favourably while 42% see him unfavourably – the highest level since he became PM.

Mr Burnham had a net favourability rating in October of +4, which is down from a peak of +13 in August, according to YouGov.

Asked about whether they approve or disapprove of the Labour Government, 51% told the same pollster they disapproved while 26% signalled their approval, as of Monday (October 26).
