Burnham organised a coup to become Prime Minister.
Now he is doing everything he can to evade taking big decisions.
Instead, he's distracting voters with crumbs.
That's not leadership, it's an abdication of responsibility.
Burnham is not fit for or office.
That delightful Irish antisemite has been arrested. I realise that doesn’t narrow it down much, so hopefully the below will help. It won’t be long before he’s named.

Antisemitic threats in a supermarket in Avignon: an Irishman arrested
An Irishman in his sixties, suspected of having made antisemitic threats against a couple of Australian Jewish tourists in a supermarket in mid-August in Avignon, was arrested on Wednesday, AFP learned from a source close to the case.
The man was arrested in Avignon, the same source specified.
In mid-August, a video widely circulated on social media showed a man facing the camera explicitly making a death threat.
Ministers Serge Papin (Commerce and Tourism) and Aurore Bergé (Fight against discrimination) had condemned “with the greatest firmness” the “antisemitic threats” targeting a couple of Jewish tourists.
This Australian couple “was violently confronted in a supermarket in France by an Irish national” who made “serious antisemitic remarks before issuing death threats” against them, according to the joint statement from the two ministers.
“Part of this scene, filmed and widely shared on social media, testifies to a violence that is as chilling as it is unacceptable,” the two government members added.
The investigation was assigned to the Marseille research section and the Avignon research brigade.

He’s gone FULL cringe.
PR is a useful tool for all politicians, but when it is all you have, you are doomed for failure.
DJ’ing, playing the guitar and joking about chocolate bars is really beginning to annoy me.
A cleric in Iran just announced that if a woman gets to choose her own clothes, then a man gets the right to rape her.
Do not scroll past that. Read it twice.
That is not a slip of the tongue. That is not a fringe opinion from the back of a mosque. That is Kazem Rohbakhsh an official worldview of the Islamic Republic of Iran, finally spoken without the mask.
For 45 years this regime has told women they are the problem. Cover yourself, or you "tempt" men. Dress modestly, or you "deserve" what comes next. And now the punchline, straight from the cleric's mouth: If you dare to be free, then we are free to sexually assault you.
Let me be clear about something.
That is the whole ideology of the Islamic Republic of Iran in one sentence. A regime so terrified of women that it believes your only choice is a headscarf or a predator.
So here is my answer to the mullah, in simple words:
Women don’t need to cover themselves to control men’s behavior. Men need to control themselves.
A woman's body is not a bargaining chip. Our freedom is not a crime. And your "right to rape" is not a right. It is a confession. A confession that your ideology is too weak to win a single woman's heart, so you must crush her body instead.

Get used to seeing reports like this along with signs being erected telling new arrivals that pooping in public isn’t culturally acceptable.

Is anyone else living in this weird dystopia at the moment where half of your brain sees pictures of this man and thinks:
‘Who is he? Where did he come from? Is he some faded rockstar?’
While the other half of your brain assumes there must be a real Prime Minister out there somewhere? Someone who understands the gravity of our situation - our national debt, the external threats we are facing, the infrastructure that’s coming apart at the seams - and looks like they have the weight of the world on their shoulders (because they do).
And then you have to pinch yourself and remember: this relaxed, joking ‘rockstar’ is actually the one in charge.
This tells you all you need to know about the corrupt United Nations!
The United States should pull out of this failed organization!

Iran and Russia Meet Next Week to confirm the 250 Billion Dollar Nuclear Deal!
Oh boy. This one was fired in the fires of hell.
The $25 billion figure is real. The meeting next week is real. The part that lands like a furnace door slamming is the timing and who is doing it!
Iran’s ambassador says Pezeshkian and Putin will meet next week at the SCO summit in Kyrgyzstan after a $25 billion Russian deal to build four new nuclear power plants at Sirik, Hormozgan — right on the Persian Gulf.
They signed that package last year.
They are waving it now.
Not enrichment halls.
Power plants.
That is the talking point.
Here is the truth under it:
The war started in February. Nuclear sites were hit. The IAEA is still locked out. Hundreds of kilograms of 60% enriched uranium were never accounted for. And Russia under sanctions itself is still building Bushehr and now lining up four more reactors for the same regime.
They say it is separate from any deal with Washington.
Translation: Tehran is keeping Moscow as its backup generator.
CO summit, Bishkek, September 1: Russia, China, Iran, India, Pakistan, the Central Asians. Pezeshkian and Putin on the margin.
Xi attending.
That is the counter-bloc doing business while the United States runs what officials have called an economic isolation campaign against Tehran.
You do not spend $25 billion on a dying partner unless you intend to keep that partner alive.
The ugly part is not “four power plants exist on a map.” The ugly part is who is building them, when, and why.
After enrichment sites were struck, after the IAEA was locked out, after a war that was supposed to end the nuclear file as we knew it, Moscow is deepening the one relationship that still gives Tehran technology, political cover, and a seat at a table Washington does not control.
That is the deal. That is why it feels fired in the fires of hell. Not because a VVER reactor is a warhead it isn’t but because the axis that has been trying to outlast Israel and the United States just signed another decade of work in ink and called it energy.
The regime cannot survive.
Arm the Iranian people.
And do not let anyone sell you “peaceful nuclear energy” from the same crowd that has been chanting death to America and death to Israel for forty years.
Pray without ceasing.
