@AndyBurnhamGM In short, what you really mean is that you are a carpetbagger with more political faces than a cut diamond.

I am proud and humbled to have been selected as Labour’s candidate for Makerfield. These proud working-class communities represent the very best values of our country and they deserve so much better. It would be my honour to work for them every day, if elected as their MP, to achieve that. Many people here feel Westminster isn’t working for them and they are right. I am standing to change that and get the voice of these communities heard loud and clear. I am glad that this by-election has finally put the places that make up the Makerfield constituency into the national spotlight. They have been neglected by national politics for too long. It is a good thing that all political parties are now on the hook to tell the voters here what they are going to do for them. More than anything, people need life to be more affordable again. As Mayor, I have brought in changes which are helping, such as the £2 fare cap, free bus travel for our 16-18 year-olds and removing the 9.30am restriction from older and disabled people’s bus passes. But there is only so much I can do from Greater Manchester. If elected, I will have a relentless focus on reducing people’s everyday costs and bills and well as securing the investment these communities need. I have been an elected representative in Greater Manchester for 25 years. Throughout that time, I have fought for the people of the North West of England on so many fronts. I am now ready to bring the whole weight of that experience to fighting for the communities of the Makerfield constituency and would be privileged to be given that opportunity.

@matthewdmarsden But is your bacon halal bacon?

American bacon is better than British bacon. No contest.

@Choppaharris321 @NotfarW Other stern gland orator.

@NotfarW Oh really I thought you spend your time being a bigot. And pretending to be a black man. What a waste of time Charity worker hahaha

I put a post up about being a black man and attending the unite the kingdom march with my family 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Thank you so much to everyone who sent some great messages . Obviously got a few dickheads sent me the usual crap but 99 % where heartwarming thank you also I got over 1000 new followers in 24 hrs I promise I will refollow everyone thank you all so much I had a great unhindered day do did my family hopefully we made our voices heard 🙏

@DegenALTMemes @NotfarW Possibly but that is matter of opinion. He is certainly not talking through his stern gland like yourself.

@NotfarW You are a tool.

@ArchRose90 @liam345 Burnham is a diamond geezer. He has more faces than a cut diamond.

Andy Burnham, September 2025: I want to see the UK rejoin the EU. Andy Burnham, May 2026: I respect the referendum result. Anyone who flip flops like this can’t be trusted.

@andrewhesselden 🤡

Not only are Brexiters saying no to the idea of rejoining… It’s now “no but even if we did, we wouldn’t like the terms”. Are they realising it’s increasingly likely?

@Nickie_Brown @RomanyTory 👏👏👏👏👏

Let’s have a think about what’s happening in Makerfield. This by election is costing taxpayers £226,208. And it’s happening because a Labour MP chose to step aside to make room for Andy Burnham’s leadership ambitions. He admitted that himself. But here’s some more interesting figures. If Burnham wins, he’ll have to resign as Greater Manchester Mayor too. That triggers another election costing taxpayers around £4.7 million. So in total, nearly £5 million of public money could be spent not on improving services, fixing roads, supporting communities or helping struggling families, but on political career ambitions. People are struggling with bills, crime, NHS waiting lists and communities being ignored. Yet Westminster politics still seems focused on who climbs the ladder next. That’s what frustrates people. Not democracy. Political games made to look like democracy.

@justdavenow89 🤡

Keir Starmer is a much better prime minister than Nigel Farage or Rupert Lowe could ever dream to be

@MatthewStadlen Stadlen excessively botty burping as usual.

The absolute nerve of the grifters trying to con you into believing the “Unite the Kingdom” march wasn’t far-right. Just look at the evidence staring you in the face.

@lukeakehurst 🤡

This attack on Breakfast Clubs from a Reform council leader is ignorant. Breakfast clubs aren't just about nutrition, they mean the child is more ready for formal classroom learning as they have already been in a school environment for c45 mins. They enable working parents to get to work earlier and earn more. And having visited some in my constituency it is obvious the children enjoy being there!

@TedUrchin 🤡

A colossal mistake. The hard left in the party have taken a free ride on Starmer’s hard work and success as they could never have achieved it on their own. To me, that’s tantamount to parasitism. Ticks an’ fleas, ticks an’ fleas.

@markofagenius 🤡

Maybe we should thank Burnham and Streeting for making Starmer more popular every day. Just a thought!

@wendlingere49 🤡

Prime Minister who has delivered what he promised, in less than two years is being hounded out of office because the media don't like him enough.

@colder_sarcasm Care to comment on this?

This

@hol40900 The action of one was illegal, the action of the other is totally lawful. Care to comment on millionaires row, known as the government front bench?

Farage demands Rayner resign for £40k stamp duty error. He took £5m from a crypto billionaire – undeclared – and faced nothing. Same game. Different rules. 👑💷

@KarlTurnerMP @AndyBurnhamGM Will he admit publicly that he will do everything he can to take the UK back into the EU?

Hope. That’s what @AndyBurnhamGM is offering. Hope. It’s not difficult. We came in saying it’s all bad and it’s going to get worse. What sort of an offer was that?

@justdavenow89 An interesting assertion concerning former Labour supporters.

I will say it again Reform voters = thick twats

@paulmasonnews Mason over exercising his stern gland again.

The fascist march was dire, the rally small: reason - it's all paid for by the US Christian far right and your average knucklehead is not really into Jesus after 8 cans of Stella

@JennyEPence 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

The sheer volume of X posts backing SKS give me hope that he would beat any challenger in a membership vote. Brits naturally hate disloyalty & inflated egos and that alone gives Starmer the edge. I truly hope he fights to the finish & that the traitors get a nasty surprise.

@JohnHealey_MP Why should foreign flags be flown from public buildings?

I’m proud of UK leadership on Ukraine - under the last Government, and stepped up with this Labour Government. But there is nothing to be proud of by removing Ukrainian flags and promoting Putin as a leader - like Reform does. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…
