Andy Burnham elected UK Labour leader

Andy Burnham has just been confirmed as the new UK Labour leader after receiving 379 nominations from his fellow MPs.

Axar.az reports, citing BBC, that he is still not the prime minister - that job is still held by Keir Starmer.

That changeover will take place on Monday, when Keir Starmer is due to go and see the King and resign.

Burnham will then follow him to Buckingham Palace, where the King will officially ask him to form a government. Burnham will then be prime minister.

It should be noted that former prime minister Keir Starmer announced his resignation on June 22.
