Andy Burnham Discusses Trade and Immigration at Commonwealth Meeting

Andy Burnham met with Australian representatives during the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Antigua. The speaker highlighted that Australia is a trading nation and that global engagement is crucial for its economy and living standards. The speaker also noted that the combined economies of the 56 Commonwealth nations are projected to approach $30 trillion next year.
