Andy Burnham says he'll "fight with everything I’ve got" to keep the UK intact

At the Labour Party conference, UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham used his first conference speech to present an optimistic vision and call for togetherness. He did not mention the Drumcree parade standoff in Northern Ireland, a dispute that has received heavy coverage in Ireland but much less in Britain. His only Northern Ireland reference came within a broader promise to keep the United Kingdom intact and transfer decision-making from Whitehall to Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and England. The speech set the tone for his premiership and addressed the UK’s nations while the Drumcree situation remains unresolved.
