Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham calls on UK's new Labour government to work closely with local leaders and invest in housing and rail infrastructure. Burnham wants a "decisive break with austerity," with Labour's promise to build 1.5 million homes over five years, building social housing to address the crisis. Burnham also urges the government to commit to the Northern Powerhouse, involving a £17bn railway plan between Liverpool and Manchester.
