NEWSDECK ANALYSIS
The coverage of Andy Burnham's potential tax rises as prime minister shows a mix of neutral and celebratory tones from centre outlets, while GB News takes a critical stance. Most outlets focus on Burnham's potential as prime minister or his considerations for the Chancellor position, but Express Politics diverges with a poll on Ed Miliband's potential role as Chancellor. The coverage does not show a clear left-right divide, but rather varying levels of enthusiasm and scrutiny towards Burnham's leadership bid.
