Andy Burnham's bid to lead the Labour Party is making headlines once again, but what sets this attempt apart from his previous efforts? As a seasoned politician with a long history in British politics, Burnham has already run for the Labour leadership twice before, in 2010 and 2015. This time around, he faces stiff competition from other contenders vying for the top spot, including Keir Starmer's deputy Angela Rayner and potential challenger Lisa Nandy. Will Burnham's third attempt be his lucky one, or will he face another round of defeat?


This is not the first time Burnham has tried to become Labour leader, so what else do we know?
