Do you guys think @AndyBurnhamGM will be calling for VAR after the Makerfield results?

🚨Dear Reformers, After months of hard campaigning, I hope you can understand that I was utterly shattered and needed some well earned rest and recuperation, which is why this is my first post since stepping down as Chairman. I leave the role incredibly proud of the unprecedented progress we made during the eleven months I served as party Chairman. During my tenure, our results were nothing short of phenomenal. We became the largest political party. On average, we welcomed a remarkable 6,000 new members every single month and to top it all off, we made another major breakthrough at the local elections. We gained nearly 1,500 councillors and we took control of 17 new councils. Something the establishment said was impossible. And I want to be really clear. None of this would have been possible without you, the members and supporters. Your commitment, dedication and passion shines through whenever I meet you. As I travelled across the country on my Chairman’s Tour and met thousands of you, I was genuinely overwhelmed by the warmth and support I received at every event. Please know that feeling is entirely mutual. I know Lee Anderson will continue the fight brilliantly, and as someone who has been in Reform for a long time, he knows exactly what it means to be a Reformer. I now turn my attention to my home county of Suffolk as I look to return to elected politics. I remain fully convinced that @reformparty_uk is Britain’s last chance. 🇬🇧
