But what do you mean by it in relation to Burnham? How does it have a material affect?

But what do you mean by it in relation to Burnham? How does it have a material affect?

Because I don’t think he is a serious politician, has no depth to him, and as has been shown in his Mancunian role lacks the ability to influence. I thought the definition posted was quite apt tbh......
Me or Andy?? lol lol

Both...sorry, Andy....lol
Jock McUnion?
Ahhh I saw it just earlier as well. Scottish Labour are in real trouble. Found themselves outmanoeuvred by the SNP and don’t appear to have a strong, charismatic leader. Stronger socialist sentiments over the border and Labour’s shift to the centre, created a bit of a political vacuum which the SNP have hoovered up.
Miliband going north with Cameron and Clegg before the independence vote was absolute suicide. Should have kept more of a neutral stance.
You know who the Tory leader is there these days?
Red Hamish Mc ?

Have you got some examples of him being lightweight and having no depth? Maybe in comparison to the current leaders?

Richard Leonard? Big Corbyn supporter, should have gone 12 months ago but at least he's eventually had the decency to resign.
Agree with this. SNP look unbeatable at the moment but they are a party of many diverging views with only one unifying policy: independence. If they achieve that aim they will almost certainly split into different factions and it's possible that the two traditional parties will become defunct.
Is Ruth Davidson still Tory leader? I know she left to have a baby and am unsure if she's gone back.
Nah she left when she saw the direction the Tories were going. Said she had parental duties but it was pretty obvious. She’s a pretty crafty politician, who appears to have some principles which is unusual for your modern day Tory. Expect her to turn up again at some point also. Was touted as a future leader and @peteblue was a fan if I remember rightly.
I dunno about the SNP. They have some really good MPs and MSPs and despite the many critics south of the border, Sturgeon is well liked and crucially, appears to actually be competent
Labour are rudderless and ‘Tory’ is still a dirty word for many. Can see them maintaining power for a decade or more.

Not a bleeding clue. Some fella who seemed a bit of a waste of space before Ruth Davidson took up the reins again within the Parliament. She is the only tory leader up there. I can’t remember her name but there was a labour leader four or five years ago who was also a bit sharp.....
