Snippet:
Several of the papers on Thursday home in on a warning to Andy Burnham from the City of London. It says there will be "markets chaos" if the new prime minister does not rein in spending, cautioning that he cannot "borrow his way out of this". The Telegraph notes Burnham refused to rule out more borrowing during his first Prime Minister's Questions on Wednesday.
