We're Ready.

Bring it on and vote @reformparty_uk

[Piers Morgan @piersmorgan]

BREAKING: Keir Starmer cries as he resigns as UK Prime Minister. Sad end to a dismal tenure. Never seen such a big election win end in such abject failure so fast. Bottom line: he wanted power but didn’t know how to lead the country.
He was the ultimate man without a plan.

[Emily Hewertson 🇬🇧 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 @emilyhewertson]

“No mandate. Nobody voted for this.”

Your words, @AngelaRayner.

I assume you will be calling for a General Election once the new Labour leader is in place?

[Zia Yusuf @ZiaYusufUK]

Burnham has no manifesto.

No mandate.

Just 0.03% of the British people voted for him.

WE NEED A GENERAL ELECTION NOW!

[Nigel Farage MP @Nigel_Farage]

Reform demands an election, and we are ready to deliver radical change.

If Labour thinks it can shove another professional politician into No 10, it has another thing coming.

Read my second essay to Britain. 👇

[Adam Brooks AKA EssexPR 🇬🇧 @EssexPR]

He betrayed his people. I have zero sympathy for Keir Starmer. Zero.

[James Melville 🚜 @JamesMelville]

The only person that Keir Starmer should blame for his predicament is himself. It started with scrapping winter fuel allowance for pensioners and he never recovered. A series of policy errors, terrible communication and bad appointments. He hoisted himself by his own petard.

[Julia Hartley-Brewer @JuliaHB1]

Now that @Keir_Starmer has finally resigned, everyone is going to start saying nice things about him. About how he was honourable and did the right thing etc, with talk of his legacy and sense of duty to public service.

It will all be nonsense. He wasn't up to the job and he thinks he's been betrayed by his own party and his own voters.

And never forget that he despises most of the people in this country just for being patriots and wanting strong borders.

Good riddance.

[Sue Mitch @suemitch2017]

Rachel Reeves will depart No 11 with her reputation in tatters @RachelReevesMP has nothing to show for her time in No 11 apart from boarded-up shops, a looming debt crisis & surging unemployment, especially for young people struggling to start their careers.

I seem to remember rather a lot of shouting and moaning from Labour about the Tories replacing their leader and demanding a General Election! Saying it left the government with “No mandate” and the “public should have their say.

Hmm …

[Mike Tapp MP @MikeTappTweets]

Is it time to legislate; if a change of leader is forced by its own Party then a General Election must be called.

That would stop the constant churn and focus all politicians on delivery, instead of work place politics. These endless ‘house of cards’ games would end and the country would benefit.

Let’s legislate to focus minds.

[Simon Danczuk @SimonDanczuk]

The BBC is that bad people now have to be forced to watch it - as well as forced to pay for it. It’s avoided because of its left-wing, woke bias, crap output. So, who better to deliver state enforcement than Labour, the party the broadcaster most agrees with. Authoritarianism.

[Douglas Carswell🇬🇧🇺🇸 @DouglasCarswell]

British politics for the past decade:

1. New Prime Minister arrives.
2. Same policies on immigration, economy, eco bs, crime as before.
3. Same civil service dysfunction & public discontents.
4. Forced out.
5. New Prime Minister arrives.
6. Repeat

Systematic change, not soap opera, is needed

[Peter Bleksley @PeterBleksley]

In case you missed it, in the past two days 798 illegals have entered the UK via eleven dinghies.

[Richie Taylor @RWTaylors]

From forcing us to scan our face to log onto an app, to giving the Home Secretary the power to ban organisations overnight, to nationalising heavy industry Westminster is pushing through some of the most authoritarian and interventionist laws in modern British history. And they are doing it because they know the public is too busy watching Starmer's political funeral to notice.

[Lee Anderson MP @LeeAndersonMP_]

My Makerfield Verdict.

I cannot think of another time where voters have voted to elect a Labour MP to get rid of a Labour PM.

The public must decide.

Burnham didn't even stand when this Government was elected.

[Rael Braverman @raelbrav]

I am not excited about Starmer resigning.

I wish I was.

Burnham will be just as bad, if not worse.

[Bernie @Artemisfornow]

In case you wondered … Andy Burnham is Net Zero on acid

And I suspect all new borrowing will be dependent on a harder and faster transition. Which really means higher taxes to underwrite projects we would never vote for.

The net zero gravy train will not be allowed to fail💣

[MrFezziwig™ @MrFezz15]

If Burnham becomes PM there must be a general election. He'd have absolutely ZERO mandate to govern.

[Carole Malone @thecarolemalone]

Unbelievable to see people celebrating the fact @AndyBurnhamGM could be our next PM. He was twice rejected for PM because he was so lack lustre.Nothing has changed in the past years 8 years which he has spent piddling around in local politics.Yet Labour sees him as its saviour!
