Andy Burnham played guitar with Ukrainian soldiers on his first official trip to Kyiv as prime minister. The footage posted on social media on Monday, 24 August, showed the PM and a soldier jamming to a rendition of “Rusholme Ruffians” by Manchester band The Smiths. Mr Burnham played the guitar in the mobile recording studio of the military and artistic unit, Cultural Forces, which performs on the front line, in hospitals, and at rehabilitation centres. “I’m out of practice”, Burnham joked as he picked up the guitar and strummed a few chords, but declined to sing. The soldiers later sang an Oasis song to him.

In The Room | What happens when the PM meets Trump and Putin
Being prime minister can be a lonely job. Everyone wants your attention, your approval and a say in the decisions you make. But when the fanfare dies down, it’s you holding the pen and making the biggest calls. Fortunately, every prime minister has one person at their side: their principal private secretary. Peter Hill was Theresa May’s PPS from 2017 to 2019, as well as her sherpa for the G7 and G20 summits. As the most senior civil servant in No 10, he was there for the private conversations, difficult decisions and encounters with some of the world’s most powerful leaders. In this episode, Peter takes us behind the scenes of meetings with Donald Trump, Vladimir Putin, Angela Merkel and Emmanuel Macron, revealing what they’re really like in the room, the unexpected humour behind closed doors, and the reality of being at a prime minister’s right hand through thick and thin. New episodes of In The Room come out weekly. Listen to the latest on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or watch on YouTube.
