Burnham didn’t invite you to talk about social care because you resigned and triggered a by-election to deflect from taking a £5m million bribe from a billionaire, remember?
Laura Kuenssberg, "Do you rule out having a general election before 2029?"
Andy Burnham, "There's no early general election"
Anyone remember LK asking Boris Johnson about why he took power without a general election?
Ahead of last year’s budget, over 80,000 people signed my petition calling for a Wealth Tax.
A 2% Wealth Tax on assets over £10 million would raise £24 BILLION per year.
I believe this is a way to raise crucial funds urgently needed to help tackle the cost-of-living crisis.
🌹EXCL: PM Andy Burnham writes for the Mirror after his whirlwind first week
He says Britain must be a country “where no one is written off” and Govt must get stuck into the difficult issues
“Lasting change will only come when we stop tinkering with the system and accepting it’s broken,” he says.
“I’m not pretending we’ve solved Britain’s problems. Far from it.
“But this week is a reminder that the government can make people’s lives that little bit easier. That politics can work for the people.
“And that we don’t have to settle for what others say is and isn’t possible”

I'm used to people telling me things can't be done.
I didn't accept it then. I won't accept it now.
It's time to get Britain believing again and bring back hope.
This week is just the start.

You will see this as a determined drive that you have not seen before from a British government.
Buying British not “if possible”, but by design. So every procurement pound supports British jobs, British apprenticeships and British skills. https://t.co/9orb94QfLc
🚨BREAKING
Police investigate donations by Tice company to Reform UK
Britain Means Business gave the party two donations of £250,000 in the run-up to the 2024 general election, when Tice was party chairman.
Linked to the Fiona Cottrell money
Tice said: "This is the first I have heard of it - if true why are the Met Police briefing the BBC before contacting interested parties? Is the Met leadership now engaged in the widespread politically motivated smear campaign against Reform and its leaders?"
NOTE THE DESPERATION OF TICE TO SAY IT'S A SMEAR CAMPAIGH - HE DID WITH THE TIMES, THE NCA AND NOW THE MET. https://t.co/uWPqNekyLN
If any Reformers have any loyalty left to Farage think on this
- he resigned to fight a pointless byelection
- he has abandoned the Manchester Mayoral candidate - a contest he was saying they would win in early June
- all activist support was told to go to Clacton
- why because Farage is terrified of losing to a Bin
- a situation that he created, he sacrifices all others to try and save his own skin
EXC: Andy Burnham has vowed to build a Britain where “nobody is written off” and everyone is treated with respect. The new PM said care would drive every choice in government, and vowed not to settle until everyone was "living well". He also accused previous administrations of just accepting issues like rough sleeping can't be solved, and pledged to prove his doubters wrong

@SkyNews@BethRigby@RuthDavidsonPC@HarrietHarman Jesus he has PM for less then a week and already your looking to reign him down and cause shit, unbelievable, why not concentrate on getting more behind the truth of Farage and his dodgy dealings
@SkyNews@BethRigby@RuthDavidsonPC@HarrietHarman Do you think you can finish him off quicker than you did Starmer?
Then we can have eight PMs in ten years… that’ll be great!
Sick of you ghouls trying to sensationalise everything and destroy people from day 1. You’re like a bunch of vultures.
Give the man a fucking chance.
