Quiz: Did Andy Burnham Hit the Right Note in His Regional Tour Playlist?

Now serving as prime minister, Andy Burnham has embarked on a summer tour across England’s regions, hosting reception events accompanied by music selected to reflect each specific area.

The Guardian presents a quiz challenging readers to identify the tracks Burnham chose for various stops. The first question asks which song by The Clash was played during an event in London. Candidates include “London’s Burning,” “The Guns of Brixton,” “London Calling,” and “Julie’s Been Working For The Drug Squad.”

A second question focuses on the musical selection for a visit to the West Midlands, with options including Slade’s “Cum On Feel The Noize,” Electric Light Orchestra’s “Mr Blue Sky,” and The Specials’ “A Message To You Rudy.” The quiz also poses broader questions about whether Burnham’s tastes align more with The Pogues or Primal Scream.

Photographs from the tour show Burnham engaging with crowds, including a recent appearance in Stevenage.
