So, Andy Burnham *is* going to use the flexibility introduced into the Govt.'s fiscal rule(s) by Rachel Reeves to explicitly allow funding of public investment with long-term social benefits...

It will be ironic if the most far-reaching & sensible thing Reeves did hands Burnham the key tool to allow him to deliver some of his agenda.

Its also ironic that his Govt. will make more use of it than that of Keir Starmer for which Reeves developed the approach.
