Andy Burnham is set to meet Donald Trump in person for the first time at the UN General Assembly, with Olivia Utley and Tom Harwood discussing the potential political tensions the meeting could create for the Greater Manchester mayor.

Could a friendly relationship with the US president put Burnham at odds with parts of the Left, particularly as he seeks to build support beyond Labour’s traditional base?

GB News Political Correspondent Olivia Utley, and GB News Deputy Political Editor Tom Harwood, discuss Burnham’s upcoming meeting with Trump, the political pressures surrounding it and what to watch for when the two meet.

Andy Burnham could decide to call an early general election before Christmas, the country's top union official has told GB News.

TUC general secretary Paul Nowak told Chopper's Political Podcast that the PM could decide to call an election after he publishes his 10 year plan later this Autumn.

He said: "I don't think that the public are battering down Andy Burnham's door in Downing Street, 'saying let's have a general election'. We've got to get through the first budget.

"Let's see Andy's 10 year plan. He might decide actually I've not got enough room within the manifesto to deliver the change that I think we need to see."
Mr Nowak was speaking ahead of the TUC conference this weekend in Brighton. The PM is expected to address the conference next week.

The PM told MPs in the House of Commons last week: "Later in the year, our 10-year plan for Britain will set out plans for stronger public control over these essentials, making them work for people and places again."
