Amazing how under prepared or unwilling to engage with difficult subjects was Burnham. Also contradictory, said disrespectful to discuss PM job but then said how he’d change Thames Water….thats of real interest to Makerfield !!!
Surprised how tetchy he was when challenged for detail.
@RicHolden Another broken promise by Starmer, who pledged to restore trust in politics with honesty & integrity. By keeping DJ in post speaks volumes.
This is a very instructive interview with @lewis_goodall. Listen I’m not going to pretend that I’d support Wes for the leadership of @UKLabour (if I wasn’t currently suspended) but I will say that he’s got more integrity in his little finger than most others in the cabinet put together. That’s my honest opinion.
“The culture is bad” says @wesstreeting and he’s spot on. Viciously bullying culture that @Keir_Starmer knows about but always says it’s nowt to do with him.
@TheNewsAgents@wesstreeting Wow ......not in the right mindset !!!!......extremely enlightening from Wes & also basically saying No10 & co don't actually tell the truth after this PM stood on a platform of restoring trust in politics with honesty & integrity !!
Remember when Keir Starmer repeatedly slammed Boris Johnson for the missing and deleted WhatsApp messages during the Covid Inquiry?
He demanded full transparency, raged about ‘government by WhatsApp’ and said the public deserved every scrap of the record.
Fast forward: now his own Deputy PM David Lammy admits using disappearing messages, Starmer himself has auto-delete switched on, and key chats about the Mandelson files have conveniently vanished.
The same man who attacked Johnson for exactly this is now doing it in government.
Hypocrisy level: expert.
Transparency for thee, but not for me?

@JasonGroves1 Remember Starmer electioneered on a promise to restore trust in politics with honesty & integrity !!!!!!......this is an absolute affront to the electorate. Basically he doesn't mind if Ministers including him are dishonest about the truth !!!
Absolutely pathetic comment by Burnham. We all know that’s the reason for his attempt to become an MP, BUT he still can’t be totally honest and say that outright, he has to blame Streeting for launching a bid, when in fact, no one has launched a bid. The follow up to Burnham should be, if no one launches a bid, would you be the first ?
@PolitlcsUK “Look at “ doesn’t mean anything !!……if he was determined to ban, Burnham would have said that……this is called sitting on the fence to garner votes

15 men, convicted of 88 counts of rape, against one child.
This is a grim reminder that we still don't know the full extent of the grooming gangs.
We don't know how many perpetrators, or victims, are out there, or where gangs like these are still operating.
