@PutneyFleur @SkyNews @AndyBurnhamGM We don't want an individual as PM who decided to be PM. Neither did we want the elections in Makerfield. You seem to be worse than the Tories. Backstabbing, coup d'etat, leaking to the press to make the people want the PM to go and to underminr him. Shame on you all.

Andy Burnham has demonstrated that he has the experience and leadership to lead our party and this country. We don’t need a contest for a contest’s sake. People want us to get on with delivering Labour’s manifesto.

@RupaHuq You should be criticising yr colleagues for abusing trust of the voters, spending public money to satisfy their personal ambitions and using underhand tactics. This election was unnecessary. The seat was Labour's. You chose to join them and celebrate their deplorable actions.

It is totally routine after a Thursday by-election to do a photo on Monday with the victor. Here are some past ones

@Janet88801 @Hitendra2020 What is wrong with Free Tibet?

@Hitendra2020 😂😂😂 yeah all right, "Mr Free Tibet" 😂😂😂

Days in Makerfield since the election: Rob Kenyon 5 Andy Burnham 0 😂

@theideareview @JPMcQu @bmay Who told you that the public does not want Keir Starmer? The media. I am a member of the public as many others who wanted him to be PM.

@JPMcQu @bmay yes, ks wouldnt have had to go if the public wanted him. thats the game youre in - accept it. If other MP's cant get enough support for leadership, they stand down, yes. So it was makerfield + plp

My strong gut feeling is that the Labour Party is having a very excited, almost delirious conversation with itself that will completely fail to connect with the vast majority of the country beyond some parts of northern England.

@Gypsypup13 @Robbo1992x @DPJHodges Or Brexit. He cannot make up his mind

@Robbo1992x @DPJHodges He had 5 million for security

So I don't get this line from Nigel Farage. He says here the money was "a purely private matter. Nothing to do with politics whatsoever". But previously he's argued it was for security that was required as a result of his political activities. He's said he's approached the state for support on that basis, and been rebuffed. You can only ask for state security support for your public facing duties. Private citizens can't just pick up the phone to the Home Office and say "give me a couple of bodyguards".

@LaindonFEMINIST @EdwardJDavey The same.

@EdwardJDavey I will most likely be leaving the Labour Party. Had you shown one ounce of decency towards Keir Starmer I would have moved to the Lib Dem’s. But you didn’t. So I’m now looking at political homelessness. Unless you’re kicked out too?

@RupaHuq You should have admitted here that you were part of the problem plotting against the PM. You have lost my vote taking part in the coup against Keir Starmer. Yours and your colleagues actions are destabilising the country. Shame on you and the backstabbers.

Surprised to see my name on this list when I haven’t either signed any letter supporting the PM or called for the PM to go?? Not very courteous of colleagues to put names down without their approval

@RupaHuq @EalingGreens Ypu should worry about your own seat. You are not getting my vote next time. This is beacuse I do not support back stabbers and plotters.

Back in 2017 when I stood for reelection with majority of just 274 @EalingGreens chose not to contest Ealing central and Acton at the General Election to stop Conservatives winning The Green Party should do the same again in Makerfield to prevent Reform independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…

@RupaHuq No, it is horrible. Poor taste.

Nice bit of handiwork spotted on this sporty summery postbox topper near West Acton station!

@RupaHuq @AndyBurnhamGM @labourunionsuk @andy4makerfield You had a great player and a real statesman. Shame on you for taking part in the plot to undermine the government and the PM. Your actions are destabilising the country. No more votes from me for you.

It’s always said that we need our best players on the pitch @AndyBurnhamGM is a class act who is exactly that Appropriate to hear him speak with @labourunionsuk at a rugby club in Wigan 🏉 Polling day is Thursday @andy4makerfield

@RupaHuq @AndyBurnhamGM @AngelaRayner @joshsimonsmp There was no need to fight for this seat, as it was already held by a Labour Party. All if you campaigning should have concentrated on doing your jobs in your constituencies and support the PM. You have chosen to undermine the government and plot against the PM. Shame on you.

The whole Labour family was out in force for @AndyBurnhamGM today. Population of #Makerfield tripled or quadrupled with all the people power including @AngelaRayner and @joshsimonsmp 25 minutes to go. Good luck also Lab candidates in Aberdeen South and Arbroath & Broughty Ferry

@RupaHuq @andy4makerfield This election was unnecesary. The Labour Party was helding the seat. I am disappointed that you support this. You have lost my vote.

Congratulations Andy Burnham MP @andy4makerfield is not just a handle but a reality! Team Rupa loved helping out yesterday and the last 2 Saturdays saw a big Ealing presence Amazing campaign full of energy and optimism paid off in a phenomenal result 👏

@RupaHuq @AndyBurnhamGM @SkyNews @SophyRidgeSky I am very disappointed in you. You have lost my vote in the next election.

The @AndyBurnhamGM by election campaign broke all records and trounced the far right who were ready to blame each other for a Labour win Optimism and hope enthused masses in the Makerfield by-election. Now there is an urgent need to unite the country - me @skynews @SophyRidgeSky

@LaindonFEMINIST @Carriegusewize Starmer is amazing 👏 all the previous right wing PMs would have buckled long ago but they never faced a relentless rabid media did they 🌹✌️

@CarlBovisNature @BionicBirdAnna Beautiful picture.

If you see this photo, please leave a comment! 🙏 Cygnets are adorable aren't they... do you prefer close up photos like this, or photos where you see the whole bird in its environment? 🤔🐦🥰

I'm not a some overt supporter of Starmer, but if you want to see how manipulation and misinformation works on this platform, @toryboypierce's post here can be used as an exemplary example of disingenous, misleading BS. The data he is referring to is 25 year data. When Starmer took office debt was 99.5% of GDP, today it's 94.2% of GDP. That's actually a fall of 5.3%. The UK is the world's 5th largest economy, recently upgrading from 6th. Debt is not increasing, and the UK is not a third world country - far from it. Andrew takes 25 year data and attributes poor performance to one of the few Prime Ministers during that era who actually reduced debt to gbp. Do we wonder why the working man on the street has been made to hate Starmer with all this utter BS circulated by these compromised grifters?

Getting dreadful abuse from Reformorons. I'm sure I'm not the only person in the country that wants the truth about Farage's £5m.

Reform is a Limited Company Farage owns 53% It was formed in 2019 to push for a “no-deal Brexit” It wants to reintroduce the Liz Truss budget It wants to privatise the NHS & invest in fossil fuels Close the BBC & break International law It’s a scam Please retweet widely

He Has the Mandate. He Is Doing the Work. People keep saying Britain needs a new Prime Minister because that is what the media is aiming for - more clicks, more listeners and more money But I keep asking myself: Why? Keir Starmer inherited a country exhausted by chaos. A country worn down by fourteen years of Conservative mismanagement. Public services under pressure. The NHS stretched. Prisons overcrowded. Housing too expensive. Borders left in a mess. Councils struggling. Workers tired. Families squeezed. Trust in politics damaged almost beyond recognition. And into that mess came a Prime Minister who did not promise magic. He did not arrive with circus tricks. He did not pretend that slogans could rebuild a country. He came in with something much rarer in modern politics. Seriousness. Discipline. Focus. Work. And maybe that is why some people do not know what to do with him. Because Britain has been trained to expect politics as entertainment. Noise. Drama. Outrage. Punchlines. Flags. Performances. Men shouting into microphones as if anger itself is a plan. We have had years of politics as entertainment. Boris gave people theatre. Truss gave people madness. Sunak gave people management speak. Farage gives people rage. Reform gives people recycled Tory chaos with a louder microphone. And Keir Starmer? He gives people something much less dramatic. Work. Difficult work. Unfashionable work. The kind of work that does not always trend on X. The kind of work that does not produce a dopamine hit. The kind of work that does not satisfy people who want politics to feel like a football chant. But that does not mean it is not happening. Keir Starmer is doing something different. He is trying to move Britain from chaos to stability. From slogans to delivery. From performance to government. From short-term theatre to long-term repair. That may not always be loud. It may not always trend. It may not satisfy people who want politics to feel like a daily fight. But it is leadership. Real leadership is not always dramatic. Sometimes it is calm. Sometimes it is patient. Sometimes it is the person who walks into the wreckage and starts rebuilding while everyone else is still shouting about who caused the fire. And that is what Keir is doing. He is rebuilding trust. Rebuilding competence. Rebuilding Britain’s reputation. Rebuilding the idea that government should be serious again. So no, I do not want a new Prime Minister. I want this Prime Minister to be given the time and space to finish the job Britain elected Labour to do. Because after years of chaos, the country does not need another personality contest. It needs stability. It needs seriousness. It needs delivery. And it has a Prime Minister who understands that. #LessNoiseMoreDelivery.

@sales_belinda @welch379935 @drterrysimpson @campbellclaret And me too.

@welch379935 @drterrysimpson @campbellclaret I do. I'm in England

Just spoke to a business event in the Midlands. Show of hands on whether Starmer should stay or go — 80-20 stay. Has been similar at several recent events. Really interesting to see such a chasm between political/media bubble view, and out and about. Main reasons given “stability …. May not like some of the decisions but we are used to them now … fear of similar chaos as under the Tories … feeling that any PM with a decent majority has “the right and the duty” to serve a full term … May not be the most charismatic but “can the others really do much better in the circs?” … sense that media make everything seem worse than it is … worry that “country first, party second” exposed as hollow.
