Labour MP Lisa Nandy says she will leave the X platform claiming it is “unhealthy” for our democracy.
She voted against a national inquiry into grooming gangs btw.
Ed Miliband promised to cut energy bills by £300.
Today the energy price cap increases again and bills are now £300 HIGHER than when Labour took office.
And Andy Burnham wants to reward Ed's failure by promoting him to Chancellor.
The fact this man is prancing around acting like PM when he ISNT
Just exemplifies the nonsense of this country in its current state
And again he spouts the same old BS and cherry picked information !!
Blaming Brexit - again
When it's been because of people like him frustrating the process at every turn and stifling any potential progression
And AGAIN not mentioning COVID and the historically devastating insane lockdowns which are the Main reason of the mess we are in ... lockdowns LABOUR wanted MORE of!!!! And alongside devastating Labour Marxist policies killing business, investment, manufacturing and employment.
Sick of these childish spoilt ideologically blinded politicians that never take responsibility and just blame everyone else .
It's all about jokes and being the popular one with these people
It's never about doing what's actually right for this country and the BRITISH people
This is brilliant from Andrew Neil tearing through the BS on Burnham’s ridiculous “No 10 in the North”:
“He’s gone to Manchester to deliver this speech, to show that London doesn’t dominate everything and that he’s going to spread power around the country. But he’s not going to take questions because he’s got to get back to London, which is the capital and where the power is. It’s all performative nonsense.”
Says it all. Can’t face questions up North because he’s desperate to bolt back down South. The hypocrisy is unreal.
Neil slammed it as purely symbolic, admitted everything will still run through London, and finished by saying Burnham needs to “grow up” because jumping from Manchester mayor to PM is a totally different job.
Burnham ducks questions at every turn. He’s hiding from scrutiny for a reason. I’d love to see him sit down with @afneil, but we all know that will never happen. His premiership would be finished before it even started!
Today Andy Burnham,the man with no mandate, will announce his 10 year 'vision' for government.
He'll introduce a massive devolution plan, the biggest transfer of power in modern times.
Without a vote being cast to make him PM.
It's outrageous! There must be a general election.
Trevor Phillips just tore apart Keir Starmer’s disastrous time in office.
“How did a man who won a landslide victory in 2024 become so disliked by so many people so quickly, that even his own party’s candidate in Makerfield promised to get rid of him?”
Phillips begins by noting that Starmer “lacks the common touch” and “he obviously made mistakes. The winter fuel debacle for example”.
In a scathing verdict, he went on to explain:
“I think what did for Starmer is he promised to put country before party and on every occasion he had the chance to keep his word, he broke it.”
“The country wanted the two child cap on benefits, the party hated it. The country said it was time to cut welfare and boost defence, the party said that was unconscionable. The country cheered when the Pakistani-heritage Home Secretary said she’d demand more from migrants before they’d be allowed to settle permanently. Party activists called her un-British and racist.”
“In each case the prime minister chose the party, blamed someone else for his change of heart, ministers, advisers, civil servants, and threw them under the nearest bus.”
A brutal but accurate takedown of a prime minister who betrayed the country he was elected to serve. Spot on, @TrevorPTweets 👏
Sadiq Khan and Mark Rowley PUBLICLY DENIED they knew about Pakistani rape gangs in London.
It's now been revealed more than 4,000 potential cases could now be reopened and Sadiq Khan had *already seen the evidence*.
This is a *blatant* cover-up.
They BOTH need to go!
Andy Burnham becoming Prime Minister without a General Election would stink to high heaven.
Legal? Maybe.
Democratic? That’s another question entirely.
The public should decide not Labour insiders.
A man who knowingly did nothing to protect little girls from grooming gangs is welcomed into the British parliament like a hero.
Take from that what you will.
