Burnham Bounce

@MatthewStadlen He won't manage that, because he will have a 100 minority interest groups dictating policy for the whole population. That's always been the Labour way.

Power has a habit of distancing leaders from the electorate. Andy Burnham says he will stay close to the people he serves. If he manages that, he will keep sight of the issues that matter to them.

@EricHay02274523 @nw_nicholas Exactly. Old Nick isn't the brightest.

@nw_nicholas Without realising, Nick Wilson has pointed out the very reason why these constituencies have booted out Labour, Tory & LibDem control. Their record is no longer acceptable.

4 out of 10 of the lowest education levels in England are Reform/Restore constituencies.

@TedUrchin You are innumerate as well!!

Is Farage fucked?

@dave43law That meaningless statement is just nonsense - the betting markets imply Farage has in excess of a 90% chance of winning.

@MatthewStadlen And you think that is a bad thing?!

The Tory party under Kemi Badenoch has become Reform UK Light.

@Jimcrawf1 @MittensOff I know, let the taxpayer pay for their parents' vapes and bevvies as well.

@SirSofty @MittensOff You can fuck off , gobshite .

He looks torn and troubled by this difficult decision to starve kids. Sorry, my mistake - he looks like a well‑fed, free‑buffet‑slaying twat. #Reform

@LozzaFox That performance has clinched my vote Laurence! (Only kidding!).

Green Party support may have vanished, but they aren’t going without one last dad dance.

@postoyevski That was some bad shit man; too many kids grow up as potheads these days.

@daniellismore Cause and effect Daniel. Read up and you might learn something.

In Thatchers own words “privatisation of the energy industry will make us the envy of Europe” Thanks Margaret, you made a few people very rich and the rest of us much poorer.

@campbellclaret The law is only there to help Socialists.

Mmm. Not sure you should be linking Reform to financial crime as victim right now

@TedUrchin But Starmer was an inveterate liar who couldn't govern even with a huge majority. You miss that?!

Look, hate to say this, but it is becoming rather obvious that Burnham simply isn’t Prime Ministerial material. He’s a jolly populist - a nice chap to all intents and purposes. Great. Lovely. But we don’t need that. We need, and had, a serious politician in Starmer. Burnham and his co-conspirators undermined that. Destroyed it. Please tell me I’m not the only one to see this? It’s all going to go horribly wrong, and very soon. @UKLabour have learned absolutely fucking nothing. They are a bunch of blithering idiots. I wouldn’t necessarily care if it wasn’t the future of this country at stake. @andyburnham

@TedUrchin Go join him Ted!

I miss Starmer already.

@MatthewStadlen It's one big question mark! Not even worth listening to him until he faces Parliamentary scrutiny in the Autumn.

Some of the burning questions facing Burnham

@lowles_nick @TiceRichard It's terrible how you are allowed to run political campaigns from a registered charity.

Oh dear…. @TiceRichard is in a spot of bother…. Police investigate donations by Tice company to Reform UK bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@Shillyboy66 @woofjustice1891 Ah, an education founded on the wisdom dispensed at the truck stop...

@woofjustice1891 @SirSofty I do, and I'm educated...and I'm man enough to show my face🐤

@SirSofty nope, I'm slightly right of centre...but what differs the likes of you and i Sirsofty is that I'm educated and don't make the childish error of getting my information from social media...it'll make you froth at the mouth fella 🤪

Strange I haven't seen a single one of our virtue-signalling ultra rich proudly showing us all their HMRC (taxman) receipts for their voluntary overpayments! If they were really serious they'd be queuing up to do so. But they're not. Just arselicking Mr Burnham bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

@lisapease @mohammedIhysse You really should look up the meaning of genocide in the dictionary.

@mohammedIhysse A blessed sight. Thank you. I hope this monstrous genocide ends quickly.

Today, I took my children, Imad and Adam, along with my sister’s children—Elaine, Maher, and Ahmed—to the sea in Gaza. 🌊❤️ For a few hours, we forgot the heat inside the tent. We forgot the sounds of war and let the children laugh the way every child deserves to laugh. I swam with them, looked at their smiling faces, and prayed that one day they would have a normal childhood—without fear, displacement, or war. We may not be able to change our reality today, but we are trying to create beautiful memories for our children in the midst of all this pain. These small moments are what give us the strength to keep going. 💙🍉

@mohammedIhysse Did you leave your AK-47 at home?

@bevcraig 'I've delivered record growth for Manchester'😂😂😂

I've delivered record growth for Manchester. I want every part of our city-region to feel the benefit.

@PaulWat28842785 @MittensOff Yeah...they do, by their parents.

@MittensOff disgraceful action. We should make childhood a happy time. Kids need feeding.
