With Keir Starmer out and Andy Burnham stepping in as Britain’s seventh Prime Minister in a decade, the new administration faces a nation stuck on a 15-year social progress track. In this episode of Beyond GDP: The Social Progress Podcast, Michael Green addresses Prime Minister Burnham directly, laying out an evidence-based roadmap for positive change grounded in the Social Progress Index.

Michael challenges traditional political reliance on GDP data, exposing why economic growth alone fails to secure voter approval if daily lived experiences remain unchanged. From rethinking Boris Johnson’s failed leveling-up agenda to fixing the structural flaws in the housing market, this episode breaks down what it will truly take to deliver a lasting legacy in the UK.
