Just a northerner who is fed up of inept politicians. A retweet doesn't mean endorsement. We can disagree politely in English or French.

@LeoKearse In a safe Labour seat. Without Burnham standing, Reform would have won it.

[Kes @Kes1977]

I guess the good news of the Burnham victory is we’ll finally get rid of Reeves as Chancellor. If he puts in Miliband it will seal their fate.

[Kes @Kes1977]

@InspGadgetBlogs In a safe Labour seat, with the Burnham effect. Let's just be realistic here.

[Kes @Kes1977]

@EndangeredBrit I think they were voting to rid themselves of Starmer, hoping Burnham will be better. They'll be disappointed.

[Kes @Kes1977]

@CharlotteCGill @FWDDEM She is intolerable. Go back to doing maths Carol and keep out of politics.

[Kes @Kes1977]

@RealDonKeith It is certainly odd, unless she is counting something else, like just numbers in a batch or something.

[Kes @Kes1977]

@TheGriftReport He should, but he won't. They always demand it when in opposition, but the urge to do it when they're in the big chair always seems to be absent.

@darrenpjones @AndyBurnhamGM @andy4makerfield When did the Tories last win Makerfield? They won plenty of General Elections. I think your logic is flawed.

[Kes @Kes1977]

@owenjonesjourno The arrogance of the man means it absolutely will not be

[Kes @Kes1977]

@CarolineLucas @AndyBurnhamGM By the same logic it was a catastrophic defeat for the Greens

[Kes @Kes1977]

@Alexarmstrong He could just call a general election and pull the rug

[Kes @Kes1977]

@PolitlcsUK A big list for a local MP 🤔

[Kes @Kes1977]

@RichardBurgon Nope. This is the Burnham effect. Don’t get to cocky. Labour are finished with or without the saviour from the North

[Andrew Lawrence @andrewlawrence]

By far the shittest production of 'The Wizard of Oz' ever attempted.

[Kes @Kes1977]

@PolitlcsUK Who is he actually kidding?

[Kes @Kes1977]

@Keir_Starmer @AndyBurnhamGM No, they chose him to boot you out of number 10.

[Andrew Bridgen @ABridgen]

Fallout from the Makerfield by election:-
Labour MPs will row in behind Burnham’s leadership bid.
Starmer will resign when challenged next week.
There will be no other contenders.
There will be a ‘Burnham bounce’ in the polls for Labour.
There will be a GE later this year

[Kes @Kes1977]

Come on Starmer. Call that general election… today. Do the ultimate rug pull on Burnham 😂

[Kes @Kes1977]

@DeborahMeaden @Keir_Starmer If Burnham wins Makerfield, he’ll be challenging Starmer before he’s sworn in. It will be. Tory style civil war.

[Chris Rose @ArchRose90]

The Lib Dem MP Cameron Thomas, who regularly likes to heckle and do attention-seeking gestures whilst Reform MPs are speaking, has had the party whip suspended pending the outcome of a police investigation.

Looks like a bit of karma.
