‘Even Worse Than Starmer’ | Warning Over Andy Burnham’s Lack of Preparation To Lead UK

Andy Burnham has been branded “a leap into the unknown” as serious questions emerge about his preparation, policies and readiness to become prime minister. Mark Dolan speaks with veteran political journalist Michael Crick, who argues that Burnham has faced hardly any meaningful media scrutiny and warns that his incoming government appears to be little more than a “blank page”. The discussion examines Burnham’s lack of foreign-policy experience, Britain’s worsening finances, the ballooning welfare bill, defence spending and the likelihood of him refusing to seek his own public mandate through an early general election. With Reform UK still leading nationally, Burnham enters Downing Street facing enormous pressure to prove that Labour has developed more than slogans and optimistic speeches. #news #politics #labour #government #reformuk #nigelfarage Have you got a story?
