> Prime Minister Andy Burnham told Labour’s annual conference in Liverpool that his government wants to restore hope and end “politics as usual,” while having an honest discussion about difficult choices involving growth, living costs, pensions, care, infrastructure and defence. He faces tight public finances, pressure from debt markets and challenges from parties on both the right and left.
