Andy Burnham starts a national tour to hear people’s concerns about the cost of living. Sky News and Yahoo UK News report the tour begins on Monday, as the Labour mayor prepares to meet residents and discuss how rising living costs are affecting them.

Manchester Evening News adds context on the timing, saying the Prime Minister will spend much of the rest of August travelling the country. Across the coverage, the emphasis is on engaging directly with the public about cost-of-living pressures, but details such as specific locations, dates, and the format of meetings are not provided in the excerpts. The reports largely describe the tour as a way for Burnham to listen to concerns and feed them into wider political discussions.

Overall, the outlets agree on the core point: Burnham begins a tour focused on hearing cost-of-living concerns, with the start date indicated as Monday and additional timing context related to broader August travel plans mentioned by one source.
