UK Drop-In: Starmer resigns – What will a new government mean for the UK economy and markets?

What does Keir Starmer’s resignation mean for the UK economic and market outlook? What do we know about the policy priorities of Andy Burnham, the frontrunner to succeed him? Could a new government choose to pursue a more expansionary fiscal stance, and how might gilt markets respond?
