Before Anyone Crowns Burnham, Ask Him About The Cover Up.

Andy Burnham arrived in Makerfield this weekend as Labour's saviour. He left Sunday evening having retreated from his own position on Europe within 24 hours and facing a whistleblower's allegation of a cover-up in his own commissioned review.

Start with Europe. Last year Burnham said he hoped in his lifetime to see Britain rejoin the European Union. On Saturday his allies confirmed he stood by that view. On Sunday, facing a backlash in a constituency that voted 65 percent to Leave, his spokesman insisted he would not be standing on a national manifesto and would focus on local issues. A position held on Saturday abandoned by Sunday in a seat where Reform will put his own words on their leaflets. The voters of Makerfield will draw their own conclusions about a politician who says what the room wants to hear.

Then there is Maggie Oliver. Oliver is not a political opponent. She is a whistleblower who spent sixteen years in Greater Manchester Police, resigned over its handling of the Rochdale abuse ring, and won a judicial review against successive governments for failing to implement the recommendations of the Jay inquiry. Her charge against Burnham is specific and serious.

The fourth part of Burnham's own commissioned review into child sexual exploitation in Greater Manchester was, in her words, a cover-up. A paper exercise. The two independent reviewers who had spent six years scrutinising Greater Manchester Police resigned because they were blocked from accessing documents and speaking to survivors. The final assurance review, published last year, was instead carried out by HMIC. Oliver says it did not speak to a single victim or survivor from the last seven years.

This did not happen before Burnham became Mayor. It happened between 2019 and 2025, under his watch, in his name, with his authority. The review was meant to provide assurance that things had improved. Oliver's verdict is that it provided cover instead.

Burnham commissioned the earlier reviews. That credit has been extended to him repeatedly and fairly. But commissioning accountability is not the same as delivering it. The final review, the one that was supposed to confirm whether the recommendations had been implemented and whether victims were safer, is the one Oliver describes as a paper exercise that blocked the people best placed to scrutinise it.

The mayoralty has given Burnham something Westminster could not. Distance from scrutiny. Regional media is a shadow of its former self. When things go wrong a Mayor can blame the government. When things go right he takes the credit. The reputation for accountability on child sexual exploitation that Burnham has built over eight years rests almost entirely on the first three reviews. The fourth, the one that was supposed to confirm whether the changes had actually been made, is the one Oliver describes as a cover-up. The reputation and the reality, on the evidence of the person who knows most about both, do not match.

Burnham may yet win Makerfield. His personal popularity is real and may carry him over the line against a Reform candidate who won the local wards 50 percent to Labour's 22 percent. He may yet become Labour leader and Prime Minister.

But the communities he is asking to send him to Westminster are the same communities where these failures happened. They deserve a straight answer about the cover-up allegation before they cast their votes. Not a local manifesto. Not a focus on bus routes. An answer. Maggie Oliver has asked the question. Burnham has not answered it.

"The fourth part of Burnham's own commissioned review into child sexual exploitation in Greater Manchester was, in [Oliver's] words, a cover-up."

🚨 PUTIN HUMILIATES BRITAIN AGAIN

Putin has just sent a heavily armed Russian warship, the Admiral Grigorovich, to escort sanctioned oil tankers straight past the British coast through the English Channel.

A British naval vessel trailed behind... and did absolutely nothing.

Starmer gave special forces the green light last month to seize shadow fleet ships.

Since then? Over 300 sanctioned Russian tankers have sailed through UK waters completely unchallenged.

Not one has been seized.

Meanwhile our only deployable destroyer was sent to the Middle East, took three weeks to get there, and had to limp home with basic water system failures.

Trump called our aircraft carriers “toys”.
Hegseth openly mocked the “big, bad Royal Navy”.

This is what weakness looks like.

Russia sails through our front door with a warship escort while we stand by and watch.

Starmer’s Britain is a global joke.

@AlexBarnicoat_ Can we add Harry Truman to the list?

Nagasaki had the largest Christian population in Japan, most of which were Catholics - and he dropped the nuclear bomb on them.

Funny how the case of the Manchester Airport thugs has been swept under the carpet.
Did they think that we would forget?🤔🤔🤔

[Benonwine @benonwine]

What the Hell’s going on with these two Thugs who broke a female Police Officer’s nose at Manchester Airport.

WHY haven’t they been sentenced yet, WHY isn’t anyone in the media talking about this?

“Let’s ban new oil and gas licences in the North Sea but spaff away £40billion buying North Sea oil and gas from Norway. Let’s buy coking coal shipments worth £7.2million from Japan but ban UK coal mining. Let’s plaster thousands of acres of farmland with solar panels but spend £50million on sun dimming experiments. Let’s give Drax an estimated £1.8billlion in taxpayer funded subsidies on top of the £11billion it has already received despite Drax burning an amount of wood equivalent to 300 million trees. Let’s give £500million this year alone to wind power companies not to generate power from their wind turbines. And let’s spend £30billion of taxpayers’ money on carbon capture machines but put pensioners, farmers and the disabled into financial peril by claiming there’s a £22bn black hole.”

They keep rejecting his adverts so Ricky Gervais has given up trying

I wonder why Islamist Mayor of London Sadiq Khan keeps banning adverts featuring alcohol on the London Underground?

I won’t stop highlighting this until you at least acknowledge the disgusting state of the trains.

Michelle Mone’s PPE MEDPRO was a company that was less than 3 weeks old, with zero employee’s, no contracts, no premises, no previous transactions of any kind and with £100 in the bank.

Then the Government gave it £203,000,000.

Jail, jail, jail.

It’s weird how councils find the time & money to paint over St George’s flags on the road but try & get them to clear the drains & you don’t see them for dust.

Strange priorities they have 🤔

🚨 No other country on earth does this 🚨

If a UK citizen moves abroad with no job, no contributions, no private income, what happens?

🇫🇷 France – no welfare until you’ve lived and paid in for years

🇩🇪 Germany – no benefits without work or residency

🇺🇸 USA – no free housing, no cash, no healthcare unless you buy it

🇨🇦 Canada – prove you can support yourself or you’re deported

🇦🇺 Australia – welfare only after years of residency

🇳🇿 New Zealand – same, no contributions = no benefits

🇸🇦 Saudi & Gulf States – if you’re not a citizen, you get nothing, ever

❌ Bottom line: there is no country that lets Brits just turn up and live off their welfare system. None.

✅ But Britain does the opposite:

• Free housing
• Weekly cash payments
• Healthcare
• Legal aid
• Schooling

All available immediately. No work. No contributions.

Our pensioners choose between heating and eating.

Our veterans sleep rough.

Our families are crushed by tax while services collapse.

Yet billions are handed instantly to strangers who have given nothing.

This is not fairness.
This is not compassion.
This is national self-sabotage.

If you want to understand why Britain feels invaded while our people struggle, start here 👇

🔹 Hotels full while veterans sleep on the streets

🔹 Families waiting years for housing while arrivals are housed immediately

🔹 NHS queues for British citizens while newcomers get seen on day one

🔹 Taxpayers bled dry while billions are spent on people who never paid a penny in

🔹 Undocumented fighting-age males sheltered without vetting or background checks

🔹 Sharp rise in sexual crimes, rapes and grooming gangs ignored by authorities

🔹 Violent crime increasing while police look the other way to stay “politically correct”

Britain is now a country that abandons the requirements of its own citizens in order to facilitate invading illegal migrants that have zero interest in our societal cohesion.

In every other country, newcomers must contribute first.

Here, the indigenous people are sacrificed for the system.

This isn’t immigration policy.
It’s betrayal.

It’s a full on traitorous attack on the British society, our sovereignty and standards of living.

▪️UK electricity average standing charges of £187.50 a year in August 2025 are more than double what they were 4 years ago (£91.25).

▪️Energy corporations have trousered over £500 billion in profits during that time.

The cost of living crisis is the cost of corporate greed crisis. We are being fleeced. And governments are letting this happen.

"China is mounting a silent, hostile takeover of Britain
There is no such thing as a private sector under Beijing’s rule. CKI must not acquire Thames Water."

And the reason we would want to hand over control of a monopoly supplying drinking water to 15 million people to the Chinese government is?

“Under a Labour government we would freeze energy bills. We wouldn’t allow them to go up.”

~ Keir Starmer

Another lie.

Energy prices are to rise again, by 2% in October. Energy prices are 12% higher than when Labour came into government in July 2024.

ANGELA RAYNER: "Every borough of the UK will take its fair share of migrants."

Hotels MAY soon close but migrants will instead be scattered across UK communities in HMOs (houses of multiple occupancy).

So what are they? And why are they a problem? Martin from Bolton told me.

Tower Hamlets send the whole squad out to remove the St George's Cross put up by patriots.

Every one of them an import.

Patriot asked "what's the significance" of the England flag, whilst wearing a foreign flag bandana.

Absolute state of it all.

Apparently we’re going to have to prove we have medical insurance when travelling to the EU soon.
Personally I’ve always taken out insurance when travelling.
However my question is why can’t the U.K government reciprocate these arrangements for all foreign nationals arriving in the U.K from abroad?
That would hopefully end NHS tourism potentially saving the NHS and taxpayers money.
