@AndyBurnhamGM So what was the bribe you offered the elected MP to stand down?

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.

@Dostilline Been a while but both

Be honest p*ssy eaters,what do you choose sucking or licking the cl!t

@wesstreeting I know you probably won't answer this, but personally think you have missed your opportunity. If you wait for the arrival of Andy Burnham (if he winds that is) you may loose, do it now to make your chances greater

@FrankyGriff @NotFarLeftAtAll Well afyer the election he won't be an MP nor will he be a member of the House of Lords, he will be unemployed like Andy Burnham 😂😂

@NotFarLeftAtAll I bet he was offered a seat in the House of Lords….

Labour MP to stand down to allow Burnham run for byelection amid leadership row Am I missing something… you don’t just give up £100k a year job because you like someone… how much was offered to stand down ???

@ZackPolanski Yeah and probably know how to pay Tax of any type

The next Labour leader must move decisively away from the status quo to beat Reform. That means giving power and wealth to working class people. It means a democratic revolution, rent controls and public ownership of water. It means someone who isn't Wes Streeting.

@BBCNews an you please remind your presenters that Katherine is not Princess Katherine, she is Katherine the Princess of Wales. She is not of Royal birth therefore cannot be a Princess in her own right

@notrab2022 Love it 😁

@Jennifer55gt Obviously maths not your strong point 😂

Is my age an problem? I’m 66 born in 1973

@ZackPolanski Do I have to forget to pay my council tax to be able to join.... Asking for a friend

We’re replacing failing Labour and ready to take on Reform. If you want to help: Join the Greens. Join.greenparty.org.uk

@Keir_Starmer Go on admit it you was tempted to vote for someone else 😂😂

Today, choose progress over the politics of anger. Vote Labour.

@FrankBr05713205 Yes and still have mine 😁

This was my calculator in college. On the plus side, it didn't need any batteries. Anybody else ever use one?

@NotFarLeftAtAll Can we reject her as well?

Carol Vorderman says she has done all her SUMS and she predicts the Green Party will get into power at the next elections because people will reject Nigel Farage

@Heccles94 Don't need them to tell me not to vote Green can make that decision all by myself thank you very much

Labour don’t want you to vote Greens. The Tories don’t want you to vote Green. Reform don’t want you to vote Green. That tells you all you need to know. 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚

@Neccccy Even less qualified than Rachel from accounts

🚨 Rumours in Westminster growing that Angela Rayner is going to take over from Rachel Reeves as chancellor of the exchequer in May!!! Thoughts ???

@RachelReevesMP The decision to hold the interest rates was made by proper economic individuals and nothing to do with you

The war in the Middle East is not our war, but it is one we have to respond to. Every choice I make will be about keeping costs down for families and businesses, without repeating the mistakes we’ve seen in the past that resulted in higher inflation and higher interest rates.

@LibDems Another muppet

Ed stands up for Britain at its best, a country where people look out for each other, where public services work, and where politics is about fixing problems not stoking division.

@Matt_Pinner Sewing machine

Um this old. But who knows What’s inside?

@dailybritainonx Even if there was a black hole she never came forward with proof of it which makes you to believe like her boss she is good at telling untruths

She inherited the biggest fiscal black hole in a generation and found an extra £22 billion of unfunded commitments hidden in the accounts. She has maintained spending on the NHS, raised the minimum wage and kept borrowing costs under control during a global energy crisis. She is the first female Chancellor in British history. Is she getting a fair hearing?

@NotFarLeftAtAll Of course she shouldn't, she is making a valid point

Kate Garraway’s morning TV career may be over after she made some truly disgraceful comments about the St George’s flag. While interviewing Reform UK’s Zia Yusuf on whether the Union flag should be displayed in schools, she angrily declared it had been “hijacked by the far right”. Should Kate bs sacked ?
