> In his first 100 days, Andy Burnham has introduced measures including electricity-bill relief, a cap on some bus fares and new funding to tackle rough sleeping. He has also proposed a national care service for England, partly funded through changes to the state pension triple lock from 2030. Questions remain about the impact of the quick fixes and how the longer-term plans will work.
