To a large proportion of the country he is. Maybe with a Manc accent with makes him look slightly less professional.

I’m really sorry. The country as a whole does not vote decidedly left leaning people in.

The preference is Competent Centre Right > Competent Centre Left > Far Right > Far Left in that order.

Burnham vs Farage. Farage wins. Starmer vs Farage. Starmer wins. Pick your poison.

The real threat to Labour is the Conservative Party getting its shit together. And reputation washing Farage into a Competent Centre Right leader.

I always remember that when given a choice between Boris and Corbyn the country manifestly chose Boris.

Burnham can’t win in the UK. He just can’t. Sorry.

There’s enough difference between Starmer and Farage for me. If you want to pitch a different party to the public go do so. That’s what Farage has done to the conservatives so it can be done. Stop trying to take Labour down from within.

I know you’ll hate this. But I don’t get why you want to be part of a party if your aim is to take its leader down. And potentially take the party down at the next election. The first it’s won in decades

Just go join another party. Burnham isn’t going to win a general election. Leave Labour in the hands of those who can win elections so we don’t suffer endless Tory and Reform rule.

It is beyond ridiculous that house building in London. Fucking London. Isn’t profitable

It’s not as if the left was doing brilliantly during the Kinnock years. Or the Corbyn era.

Only if you live in reality and not inside your own head.

Underrated comment.

We don't need a referendum though. It can be via next parliament after a vote by the public on Labour vs Reform manifesto

The British will never ever ever accept ID cards.
