The return of Burnham?

[Protheroe]

Which of Burnham’s policies were you particularly enamoured with Dekka?

I’ve told you before I’m never voting Labour whilst Starmer and his awful advisers lead a right wing rump of the party to the exclusion of the rest. Starmer is a coward let’s be honest.

Can you describe this acceptable middle ground between Starmer & Corbyn who're both wholly unacceptable to you?

Have you ever considered the concept of #LeastWorst?

“ Andy Burnham's bid to return as MP blocked by Labour's NEC
The Labour Party's ruling national executive committee (NEC) has blocked Andy Burnham from running in the Gorton and Denton by-election.
Sky News understands that of the 10-person panel, the vote against Burnham was eight to one.
The one in support was party deputy leader Lucy Powell, and NEC chair and cabinet minister Shabana Mahmood abstained.”

Labour's centralisation of candidate selection has never made sense to me, it doesn't promote candidate quality but loyalty to the leader.

Democracy, innit!

Parachuting people into areas they don’t know or care about. No wonder the party is full of careerist, personality free Starmtroopers.

Andy’s best policies anyone, or is it because he is someone you think you could have a pint with?

[Derek Hardballs]

Still labouring under the misapprehension that this is a victory for Starmer? This has simply put a further wedge in the party and signalled that he’s running scared of those he cannot control in his own party.

I don’t see this as a victory for Starmer and I am not fussed if he does try and become leader, however I don’t see any benefit in changing PM based on absolutely no idea what the new one will promise or change. You have become something of a hypocrite of late, you didn’t want Corbyn, you don’t want Starmer so you’ll get excited about someone who is different without knowing what that entails. Yet, if anyone dares to show some allegiance to Reform you criticise them for allowing in the unknown and being stupid for it.

Again I’ll ask, what policies of Andy B are the ones that get you excited to see him as leader of the country?

[Hughie Reed 31]

I can guarantee you he will make a Reform government even more likely. An exceptionally unlikeable and disingenuous chap outside his cadre.

I met Andy Burnham at some event in London just before he was elected as the mayor
Of Manchester he seemed a ok guy quite level headed and sincere and to be fair
He has done a good job in Manchester I bet Birmingham wish they had someone
Who could raise the profile of promoting the city as much as he has done for Manchester.

Let’s put this into perspective Proth hero worshipped Hard Man Steve Baker, aligned himself with Gove, Farage and Johnson and campaigned for serial liar Johnson… the general rule is if Proth thinks they are ok, avoid them like the plague.
