Let’s be honest, the Burnham bubble’s already burst hasn’t it? #Burnham #BurnhamBubble #Labour #LabourParty

@AndyBurnhamGM Just all mates having a laugh aincha?

[Jill Foster @JournalistJill]

Ten years ago this might have worked. Bit of lighthearted to and fro on socials, showing that he’s ‘not like other politicians’. But whoever is advising him is not reading the room. People are pissed off. They don’t want ‘banter’. This is not the way…

@JeremyVineOn5 @thecarolemalone @theJeremyVine He may not have been an MP at the time but was still the owner of Reform UK

Brutus, Cassius, Decimus, and other Roman Senators take a selfie for posterity as they eagerly await the arrival of Julius Caesar in the Curia of Pompey #Burnham #LabourLeadership #LabourParty #Labour #PMQs #UK

Starmer is leaving because he lost a battle with The Daily Mail, The Sun, GB-News, Russian Propaganda, Musk, MAGA and Twitter.
The next PM will have the same forces undermining him from Day 1.
Who and how can we win this war? The answer isn’t Andy Burnham…

@floboflo @LBC @NickFerrariLBC He wanted his finances to be our business when Coutts debanked him didn’t he?

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

@OWS1892 Think his reaction betrays that he knows how vulnerable he is on this

[MARK A IZATT @markaizatt]

I don’t think they’ve considered, for a second, how disconnected from the electorate this little tableaux is - complete with the Chancellor in shot, vying for a job no doubt.

It’s also, classless, only a few hours after their leader and PM fell on his sword.

This won’t end well.

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

None of our business? #Farage wanted it to be our business when Coutts debanked him didn’t he?

[Don McGowan @donmcgowan]

If you have a spare 3 mins and 45 secs today, watch this fantastic grilling by Sally Nugent on BBC Breakfast.

The very first time I've seen Farage questioned properly about his £5M bung, and it's fair to say, he totally fluffed it.

There are points when you can see Farage tremble and even accuse the BBC of putting him in danger. 🤦‍♂️

It was for security. It was for cars. Nobody cares. It's no one's business. He won't tell us. DANGER!

At one point, he let slip that the Parliamentary Commissioner for Standards may 'disagree' with him on the rules around donations.

He knows he's going to be found guilty on this one. He's in trouble, and his face gave it away gloriously.

Top hats off to Sally Nugent. Stellar work. 👏

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

Farage is having an absolute howler of a day

[Peter Stefanovic @PeterStefanovi2]

'Do your MPs who defected from the Tories have a mandate?'

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage is questioned on #BBCbreakfast over his calls for a General Election if Andy Burnham replaces Keir Starmer as Prime Minister

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

Ooh. Ferrari just asked Farage about the £5million on @LBC and Farage is all over the place on it. Definitely looks suspicious

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

I see Nigel Farage has run to Nick Ferrari @LBC for yet another soft soap interview

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

@Rouphages @PopBase Hey Siri, show me an example of a moron that doesn’t understand latitude

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

@kumaresh_ms1597 @PopBase India is in the tropics you buffoon

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

@lisagillmore Did none of you stop to think how bad this looks?

[GoalMouth @GooalMouth]

Kier Starmer is losing his job because he lacks charisma, which is strange because the entire country just wanted a Prime Minister to "get on with the job"

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

@PolitlcsUK @JohnRentoul Did nobody think of how bad this looks?

[Sarrah Bellus @sarrah_bellus]

Donald Trump will go down in history as the only US President to be outwitted by a single-celled organism.

[Groucho72 @RobCrowther_72]

@nonregemesse Copy and paste job. Last time I saw this story it was about a movie actor
