00:00Andy Burnham took to the stage on Monday for his first major speech
00:03since launching a bid to become the next Prime Minister.
00:06We will bring about the biggest rebalancing of power our country has seen.
00:11But when will he actually become the new Prime Minister?
00:14Here's everything you need to know about Burnham's path to number 10 in under one minute.
00:21Andy Burnham is currently the only candidate in the running to replace Sir Keir Starmer
00:25after West Street Singh pulled out the race.
00:27Any other leadership hopefuls need the support of 81 Labour MPs
00:31and three of the party's affiliated organisations by July 16th to get their name on the ballot.
00:37If no other politician stepped forward, the Evertonian is expected to be formally declared Labour leader
00:42at a special conference on July 17th,
00:45with the formal handover taking place on the next working day of July 20th.
00:50If a challenger does emerge, a ballot of Labour Party members and affiliated supporters
00:54would take place between August 6th to August 27th,
00:58with the final results announced on August 29th.
01:01So, assuming things go swimmingly for the former mayor of Greater Manchester,
01:06he could be handed the keys to Downing Street before the end of July.
01:09Have a great question.
