THE year 2002 promises to be just as eventful as 2001 for busy Leigh MP Andy Burnham.
In wishing Journal readers all the best for the future Mr Burnham has revealed his wife, Frankie, is expecting their second baby in May - a welcome playmate for young Jimmy.
A delighted Mr Burnham said: "At least I won't have any trouble getting up for the early morning matches during the World Cup!
"I would just like to wish all Journal readers a happy New Year. I am grateful for the trust you have put in me to represent the area and I will keep doing my best to repay it in 2002."
