Most say Burnham has done good for Greater Manchester, and nearly half think he'll be a good Prime Minister.
52% say he has changed the city-region for the better, compared to 10% who say for the worse. 48% think he'll be a good PM, compared to under a fifth who think he'll be bad.

[Luke Tryl @LukeTryl]

35% have a favourable view of Bev Craig compared to 10% unfavourable, while 27% have a favourable view of Sian Astley compared to 13% unfavourable. Geraldine Coggins and Phil Eckersley are both on +9, although awareness of both is low.

Nigel Farage is on -12. Kemi Badenoch -4 and Zack Polanski -7
Burnham in contrast is on +23 in his home patch.

[Luke Tryl @LukeTryl]

Once second choices are taken into account, Bev Craig leads Sian Astley by 65 per cent to 35 per cent.
Labour picks up most Green second choices, Restore Britain voters opt for Sian Astley. Tory voters split more for Reform but a sizeable chunk of their second prefs go Labour
