Current Affairs The Labour Party

Really think you are wrong, both calling for economic packages, if a lockdown is needed!

We've seen that shift from the regional leaders yesterday to come into line with the national party message. But what a grisly sight: Anderson, Rotheram and Burnham...with their hospitals filling up, demanding that their businesses stay open and thinking it a good idea.

We all know where their symapthies lie.

Just an absolutely useless waste of space.

What an utter weapon he is.

His Sinn Fein dad must be really proud of him. Giving a free hand to the forces of infiltration that helped assassinate so many of the community he comes from.

I loved it

if those Tory bstards want to close business’ they need to pay them in full. Destitution is not a suitable outcome

It was nice that he thought to stress the livelihoods of workers before he stressed the effect on businesses there. The first time he's done that.

I thought that BBC series Manctopia: Billion Pound Property Boom captured Burnham's role there quite well. Let's just say - as with Mandelson before him - he's "very relaxed" with people getting filthy rich.

I quite liked it tbh D. Always been a bit harsh on Burnham because you coukd see the intention was there but he just slipped back in line when the time come – disappointingly so.

Now he doesn't answer to the PLP, he seems a bit free. Will he ultimately accept a lockdown? Probably, but full credit to him for making a stand unlike some others.

Great news for 'Kier', that.

The Newsnight piece underlined what a hypocrite and opportunist he is.

It's just a pity it wasn't a more substantive peice of journalism that highlighted his raft of right wing decision making as DPP...but then again, you dont expect substantive journalism from the BBC.

Think it’s a big shame Starmer will be in charge for next election. He’s useless. Someone like Burnham would have been be perfect to put these Tory rats to bed.
