00:04British Prime Minister Starmer officially steps down.
00:06He left 10 Downing Street with these words in his hand
00:09He said my work was done.
00:11That sounded like a dignified farewell.
00:14But in the context of British politics
00:16More like an irony
00:18Two years ago he came with the promise of ending political turmoil in Britain
00:21move into the Prime Minister's residence
00:22Two years later, he himself became
00:24The next one to leave in this turmoil
00:27In the past few years
00:28The owners of 10 Downing Street are changing more and more frequently.
00:30From Teresa Johnson
00:32To the short-lived rule of Trus
00:34Then to Sunakstama
00:36Now it's in Burnham's hands
00:38Britain has had seven prime ministers in less than ten years.
00:4110 Downing Street seems to have become a high-turnover rental property.
00:45Tenants moved in one after another.
00:47Promised to renovate
00:49However, the housing problem has remained unresolved.
00:52Political change is a normal part of democracy.
00:55But when leaders change frequently like a revolving door...
00:58Replace like this
00:58The underlying signal is
01:00The system is fatigued.
01:01Public trust is eroding.
01:04British society is currently facing high inflationary pressures.
01:07Healthcare System Dilemmas
01:09Immigration disputes
01:10And the long-term pains following Brexit
01:12Burnham's rise to power
01:14This represents an attempt by British politics to change direction.
01:17Burnham was not born into the traditional London elite circle.
01:20Instead, it is through accumulating positive grassroots prestige in local governance.
01:24He advocated for local development and improving people's livelihoods at the grassroots level.
01:26And social justice
01:27But the problem is that the driver has changed.
01:29Will the car definitely be able to get back on track?
01:31Britain's predicament is far beyond what can be solved simply by changing a prime minister.
01:35Rather, it is an accumulation of a whole set of institutional, economic, and social contradictions.
01:40Burnham didn't inherit a blank slate.
01:42Rather, it is a state apparatus that has been operating under excessive strain for a long time.
01:46Starmo's departure does not mean the end of the story.
01:49More like the beginning of the next challenge
01:51The real problem in Britain
01:53It's not about who sits at the desk at 10 Downing Street.
01:56The real question is how many more changes this political system can withstand.
02:01Today's change is in the prime minister.
02:02Tomorrow we may be facing the same ticking time bomb.
02:08Another scene unfolded at 10 Downing Street in the UK.
02:11The doorplate remains, but the prime ministers come and go.
02:13Starmer, who only served for two years, has once again lost his job.
02:17Formally appointed as Prime Minister
02:18Handing over the reins of Britain to newly elected Labour Party leader Andy Burnham
02:22Monday evening local time
02:24Amidst the applause and cheers of the crowd, Stamo...
02:27Do not deliver your farewell speech outside the Prime Minister's residence.
02:29He said that being able to serve as prime minister was the greatest honor of his life.
02:33He also firmly believes that compared to two years ago
02:36Britain today is certainly stronger and fairer.
02:39I'm sure it's the power of Alibaba.
02:41Now stronger, stronger, and more powerful.
02:44It seems like it happened two years ago.
02:45Our America is strong and stronger.
02:47Our social company is located in this vast area
02:48The expected time is 17 years.
02:51So now I'm in charge.
02:54With Burnham
03:09After the speech
03:10The supporters at the scene gave it a warm round of applause.
03:12Stamo then traveled by car to Buckingham Palace.
03:15He formally submitted his resignation to King Charles III.
03:20After the king accepted the resignation
03:22Trust Labour Party leader Burnham
03:23He then went to see the king.
03:24Accepting the mandate to form a new government
03:27Officially became the seventh Prime Minister of the United Kingdom in ten years.
03:30Under police escort
03:32Burnham then proceeded to the Mission at Downing Street.
03:34And surrounded by supporters
03:36Deliver an inaugural address lasting approximately five minutes.
03:38Unlike previous prime ministers who stood on the podium
03:41The tradition of reading from manuscripts
03:42Burnham did not use a podium throughout the entire presentation.
03:44Without looking at the script
03:45Speaking directly to the masses
03:46Attempt to cultivate a populist leader image
03:49In the speech
03:50Burnham drew up an ambitious list.
03:53Including a ten-year development plan
03:55Educational reform
03:55Public housing construction
03:57And to alleviate the pressure of people's cost of living

04:36Since Brexit
04:37British politics seems to have entered a phase of prime ministerial rotation.
04:41In just ten years, it has seen seven prime ministers.
04:44Almost no one is able to complete a full term.
04:47Burnham is now the seventh person to move into 10 Downing Street.
04:51In response to his announced grand plan
04:53An analysis by an Associated Press reporter pointed out
04:55His proposed ten-year development blueprint was ambitious.
04:59But they immediately faced a very real problem.
05:02Where does the money come from? Who pays the bills?
05:05This is a core plan
05:07And there are many problems.
05:08Andy Burnham's Plan
05:10Especially his planning methods
05:20Ultimately, Burnham didn't inherit a blank slate.
05:24It is a state apparatus with zero swords and rust, facing the direction of the rocky forest.
05:27From the glory of the Japanese tribes during the colonial era
05:30The formal upheaval of 70,000 prime ministers over the past decade.
05:34This former empire is undergoing a slow and protracted process.
05:39fall
05:39Burnham faces a difficult path to governance.
05:43Instead, it presents a series of thorny economic, fiscal, and social problems.
05:47And this game has only just begun.
05:50Britain was once a tribal empire.
05:53London is a global center of power and finance.
05:55But this former empire now faces a slow decline.
05:59It still has influence
06:01However, it also exposed more and more cracks.
06:04Starmer said the completion of the mission might signify the end of a political phase.
06:08But for Britain, the truly difficult task has only just begun.
06:12So, did Burnham inherit a scepter or a bomb?
06:16The answer is probably quite clear.
06:18He did not inherit a brand new Britain.
06:20Instead, it's a bunch of problems waiting to be processed.
06:2210 Downing Street has a new owner
06:25But the political crisis in Britain will not disappear with the handover of the keys.
06:29Replacing someone is easy; changing the entire system is the real challenge.
