Burnham faces Badenoch at PMQs ahead of EU summit

Andy Burnham will face Kemi Badenoch for his weekly Prime Minister's Questions grilling in the Commons at midday. The Tory leader could raise a number of topics, including the Prime Minister's Brexit plans ahead of a joint EU summit next week.

Mr Burnham is due to set out options for the long-term future relationship with Brussels around the time of the summit and has not ruled out a pledge to rejoin in Labour's next manifesto.

Benefits bill in focus

Mrs Badenoch could also press Mr Burnham on the benefits bill after she outlined Conservative plans for £36 billion of cuts in a major speech yesterday.
