It is hardly surprising that someone open to rejoining the EU would be open to free movement.
Burnham's romanticised picture of EU membership ignores the fact that we literally had no idea who was coming into the country before 2016. We were always told there were 3 million EU citizens in Britain. When we counted them we discovered there were 6 million.
Any attempt to return to free movement has to reckon with the fact that a country like Spain has legalised the status of a million plus illegal migrants since then, and with the very visible tensions and anxieties amongst EU member states on the subject.
There can be no viable policy which doesn't involve HMG having full control over who comes into this country. We aren't there at the moment, but we will need to get there in the end. Andy Burnham may not understand this now, but he will have to do so eventually.
❗️EXCLUSIVE❗️
Andy Burnham has opened the door to Britain rejoining the EU’s free movement rules, arguing an “honest discussion” about the idea is needed
The PM said the nature of immigration has been “different” since Brexit, with more foreigners moving permanently to the UK rather than returning home
Burnham noted how his father, Roy, an engineer, took advantage of the EU rules in the 1990s to work in Germany
He also said since leaving the bloc Britain has lost access to ‘Eurodac’, an EU database on border crossings
“I think you have to have a very factual, quite evidence-based debate about this,” he said
Burnham made clear staying out of free movement would **not** be a red line for talks (unlike adopting the Euro or rejoining the Schengen Area)
Burnham made the comments to me in one of four interviews conducted during his first 100 days in office. All unpacked in tomorrow’s Sunday Times.
It’s big news. Free movement seen as a key reason why the country voted Brexit in 2016. No PM has made the argument for potentially rejoining since… until now.
(Important to note: Burnham accepts there were ‘very significant challenges’ too with free movement. Hasn’t reached a firm decision yes or no. He continues to mull over ‘options’ for closer EU ties)
KEY BURNHAM QUOTE
“Freedom of movement had very significant challenges associated with it and I spoke about them in my previous time in Parliament. But, at the same time, it was a type of immigration that perhaps wasn’t as difficult (as now).
“Revolving door migration where people would come and then go back is different. The balance of migration has changed, hasn’t it, since then? I think we’ve just got to have an honest discussion about those things.”

Why is it always... "we can't"? Yes, yes we fucking can. All it takes is the will. If we "can't", change the rules. Start playing hard ball. This weak, wimpy, cowardly, "but but we cant" is how we got here. How about some positivity, some resolve? Yes we bloody well can.

Right. People knew why they voted.
The three most important reasons for supporting Brexit were:
-Sovereignty (self-determination);
-Immigration;
-The dangers of the EU’s deepening integration.

This is key: Foreign Office minister @SDoughtyMP says Russia was NOT successful influencing Brexit referendum
“Did they succeed when it came to the Brexit referendum? Was that an effective attempt?
Stephen Doughty: Well, the security minister has spoken about this before, and he's been very clear that they've attempted to [but] they haven't succeeded. They do attempt to interfere in our processes, have attempted to interfere in a whole number of them. And of course, it's not just Russia, it's other countries, too. but this is a whole society effort.

People didn’t vote Brexit because of “Russian interference”.
They voted Brexit bc they wanted less immigration, strong borders, more sovereignty and could see the EU is not democratic.
Then the establishment - Tories now Labour - screwed them over.

Dear Crewkerne Man, Your AI films are quite brilliant - thank you - but please spare us from this party propaganda in your X/Tweets. It is fawning, unrealistic and cringe making. It despoils your great film brand. Thanks pal!
The impact of Kemi Badenoch’s conference speech cannot be overstated. On the doors and in the streets it is STILL all people want to talk about, whether they are lifelong Tories, Reform switchers or people who gave up on politics years ago.
Why? Because it wasn't really a party speech. When she said she didn't want to live in a country run by people who debate whether her mixed-race children are English, she was speaking as a mother, not a politician. And she made the oldest conservative argument there is: you belong to this country by loyalty, graft and love of it.
It also had conviction. No hedging, no triangulating. "They are not like us. We are not like them." Family homes passed on untaxed. Andy Burnham's 1970s socialism called out by name. People knew exactly where she stood.
The impact is already clear. Any talk of a pact with Reform is dead. Their voters have been told the door home is open.
It's not often a speech lands like this. I think we will look back on it as a defining moment.

And £250 billion on migrant welfare.
We’re spending £100 billion on HS2 and £7 billion on welfare fraud every year.

“The fasten seat belts sign is on”.
This is a message I received early this morning from one of the UK’s most experienced, savvy and respected financial traders. Someone I have come to know and trust for the last 25 years.
10-year bond yields are now almost 4.5pc - up some 50 basis points over the last month.
30-year yields this morning went above 6pc - a 28-year high.
Yet the UK’s political and media class continues to focus on party posturing and folksy rhetoric, ignoring the slow-motion disaster that has been happening on the UK’s sovereign bond markets for at least the last 18 months - a disaster that will inevitably, unless we drastically change course, turn into a fully blown market meltdown.
At that point, the UK government won’t be able to borrow enough money to finance our already spiralling debt interest bill.
Britain’s financial management will be taken over by overseas technocrats - that will be the condition of additional borrowing, to maintain the basic functions of the state, as happened in Greece and Italy back in the early 2010s and here in Britain 50 years ago this year (when we were forced in 1976 to apply to the IMF for a bailout).
The austerity then imposed on Britain would make 2010-2019 feel like a picnic - far, far worse than it would be if we took serious action now to control our public finances.
Lower-income households would suffer most - and there would be serious damage done to the UK’s already rapidly-fraying social fabric ….
I have been warning about these looking fiscal dangers publicly, in my newspaper columns and elsewhere, since at least early 2024.
Doing so hasn’t been easy or fun. I have been dismissed and derided by numerous economists, “economists”, officials and policymakers - as well as lots of journalists.
I absolutely don’t want a disastrous 1976-style outcome - which is why I’ve taken the blows and issued the warnings.
The state is too big. Public spending is out of control. Our fiscal rules are a convenient nonsense - designed to kick the can of financial reality into the future. We need to get real … and take bold action to tame the growth of spending, push back a now totally over-bearing state and snap the British economy out of today’s high-tax-high-borrowing-low-growth doom loop - the result of myopic, counter-productive policy-making by successive governments for the last decade and more …
Other prominent economists who agree with me - ie who are financially-literate, can read a yield curve, have a passing interest in economic history and who understand the dangers of some 80pc of UK government borrowing going on debt interest as it currently is - need to chuck “career risk” in the bin, and start saying publicly what so many of them have, for quite a while now, only had the bottle to say to me in private …
Remember: “The fasten seat belts sign is on”

This woman appears on your television three or four times a week. She sits on the BBC, ITV, and Channel 4 panels as a neutral political editor explaining British politics to you. She is presented to you as a journalist. She is given a platform to call working class British people thugs. She is trusted to tell you what is real and what is sensationalized.
Her name is Ava Santina. She is the Politics Editor of PoliticsJOE.
Here is everything they hoped you would never know about what she has actually said, what she has actually defended, and what she actually thinks of you and the people you care about. We are going to go through it one by one. And by the time you finish reading this, you will never be able to unsee it.

THE NIGHT DANNY TOMMO WAS LOCKED UP
On 25 September 2026, Danny Tommo, a father of four with another child on the way, was remanded in custody at Basingstoke Magistrates Court after pleading not guilty to criminal damage charges following footage of him slashing a migrant dinghy in the English Channel. A man who agreed to an electronic tag, a curfew, and a two mile exclusion from the coastline was still denied bail.
That same night, while his supporters stood outside Basingstoke Police Station chanting for his release, while Siobhan White, the mother of Rian White, brutally stabbed 23 times by an illegal migrant who had failed immigration processes in two separate European countries, was preparing to speak to the nation, Ava Santina sat in a BBC studio and told the country that the small boats crisis was, in her words, sensationalized beyond parody.
She said the coverage is blasted across social media constantly. She said people are making their content more and more frightening so more people watch it and they're still making bank. She said the people who turned up outside that police station to stand for a man they believe is being politically persecuted were, and this is her exact word, thugs.
Then, to prove her credentials, she told the panel she had lived next to an asylum seeker hotel for a number of years. As if that settles it. As if proximity to the problem makes the problem disappear.
Siobhan White's daughter Rian is dead. Stabbed 23 times. And Ava Santina went on the BBC and told Britain it is all being sensationalized.
That would be damning enough. But it is not where this story begins.
THE TRANSCRIPT THAT SHOULD END HER CAREER
On 14 March 2023, Eleanor Williams was sentenced to eight and a half years at Preston Crown Court. She was a convicted perjurer who had fabricated rape allegations against multiple innocent men. She had bought a hammer and used it to beat herself to fabricate injuries. She had sent herself fake threatening messages. She had constructed an elaborate fantasy of abuse, trafficking, and rape that destroyed the lives of innocent people.
One of her victims was Jordan Trengove. He was eighteen years old when he met Williams. He spent ten weeks in prison on remand for crimes he did not commit. He had the word RAPIST graffitied across his house. He moved away from the area he grew up in. He attempted suicide in front of his own mother. He was told by his solicitor that if convicted, he faced twenty two years in prison.
On the day Williams was sentenced, Ava Santina went on Piers Morgan Uncensored to discuss the case.
She did not condemn Williams. She did not acknowledge the devastation visited on innocent men. She did not celebrate justice for Jordan Trengove.
She defended the false accuser.
These are her exact words: "I actually don't even think she should be going to prison. I think she should be sectioned. I think she's not well and I actually don't think prison is a safe environment for her."
Piers Morgan challenged her immediately. He said: "If this guy had been convicted of what he'd been accused of, you'd have called him a monster, you wouldn't make some excuse about his mental health."
He was right. And Ava Santina proved it with her own words.
She admitted: "If he was convicted and the justice system had convicted him, yes I'd have been quite happy."
Read that again. She would have been quite happy if an eighteen year old boy had been sent to prison for twenty two years for crimes he did not commit based on a pack of fabricated lies. But the woman who fabricated those lies, who beat herself with a hammer, who nearly killed that teenager? She should be sectioned. She should be protected. She should not face prison.
And then came the line that tells you everything about who Ava Santina really is. When Morgan pressed her on whether she even cared about Williams' welfare in custody, she said:
"I don't really care if it's a safe environment for her frankly."
So to be absolutely clear. She does not care if the false accuser is comfortable. But she does not want her punished. The innocent men whose lives she destroyed? She would be quite happy with twenty two years. The woman who fabricated the evidence to destroy them? Not prison. Never prison.
This is the woman the BBC trusts to explain justice to you.
THE MALE SUICIDE DISMISSAL
Six months after the Eleanor Williams broadcast, in September 2023, Santina appeared on BBC Politics Live alongside comedian Geoff Norcott to discuss male mental health and the calls for a dedicated Minister for Men.
Norcott raised the fact that suicide is the single greatest cause of death among young men in Britain. A fact. A documented, devastating, undeniable fact.
Santina's response was to call the entire conversation culture war. She said: "I feel like it feeds into the culture a little bit, this Minister for Men argument. I think a lot of ministers bandy this about to make an enemy of women."
The greatest killer of young men in this country. Weaponised by ministers to make an enemy of women. That is what she said on national television while young men are dying.
The backlash was immediate and fierce. And then came the retraction. She posted on X: "I was a little rash on my anti-minister for men comments which I do regret."
Not a correction. Not an apology. Rash. As if the dismissal of a national male suicide crisis was simply a matter of poor timing.
THE MOST COMPLAINED ABOUT BROADCAST IN BRITAIN
The same week, GB News ran a segment discussing her BBC appearance. The on screen graphic labelled her, in their exact words, hard left commentator and smirking face of disdain. The segment generated 8,867 Ofcom complaints. The most complained about broadcast in British television in the entire year of 2023.
Let that number settle. 8,867 people picked up their phones or opened their laptops and made a formal complaint to the regulator. Not about what was said about her. About the entire broadcast in which she was the subject.
Her response was not to reflect. Her response was to go to the media and demand Ofcom take action against the channel. She told the Daily Mail: because otherwise new channels will think they can do as they like. She tried to use the state regulator to destroy a competitor broadcaster. She wanted the machinery of government turned on a channel that criticized her.
She also told the Daily Mail: "I fear for my safety and am questioning whether I can carry on with my job."
A political editor who questions whether she can continue because people criticized what she said on national television. A journalist who cannot survive the scrutiny she applies daily to everyone else.
THE WALK OFF
On a subsequent appearance on Piers Morgan Uncensored, debating with influencer Sintish, known online as Based and Bougie, Santina could not hold her position under challenge. She walked off the set. Left the studio. Mid debate. Sintish described her behaviour as demonic. The video exists and has been widely shared.
This is the journalist who calls working class protesters thugs from the safety of a BBC studio. This is the journalist who cannot remain seated when challenged by someone who disagrees with her.
THE PATTERN IS UNDENIABLE
Let us now put it together plainly because it needs to be said plainly.
She defended a convicted false rape accuser who destroyed men's lives and said she should not go to prison. She admitted on camera she would be quite happy if an innocent man received a twenty two year sentence based on fabricated allegations. She dismissed the male suicide crisis as culture war before quietly retracting when the public turned on her. She appeared on national television the night a British father of four was remanded in custody and called his supporters thugs while boasting about her proximity to an asylum hotel. She called the small boats crisis sensationalized while Siobhan White, whose daughter was stabbed twenty three times by a man who should never have been in this country, was preparing to tell her story to the nation. She generated 8,867 Ofcom complaints in a single broadcast. She used her media platform to try to weaponise the state regulator against a competitor outlet. She walked off a live television debate when challenged. She told Britain she was questioning whether she could continue her job when people criticized the things she said publicly.
She is not a journalist. She is an ideological activist who has been handed a mainstream platform and uses it to dismiss the suffering of men, to defend the indefensible, and to call anyone who disagrees with her a thug.
And the BBC keeps inviting her back.
WHO SHE REALLY IS
She came up as a producer on James O'Brien's show at LBC. The most divisive, the most partisan, the most relentlessly one sided programme in British talk radio. She learned her craft in that echo chamber and she has never left it.
She moved to PoliticsJOE, a digital outlet that describes its mission as rebuilding the left. Not reporting politics. Rebuilding the left. That is the organisation whose politics editor sits on your television and tells you she is explaining the news.
She tweets with the confidence of someone who has never had to answer for anything. Her Instagram bio quotes a piece of hostile mail as if it is a badge of honour. She frames every challenge as persecution. She frames every critic as a thug. She frames every working class person who is frightened about what is happening to their country as a sensationalist, a money maker, a bigot.
Meanwhile Rian White is dead. Jordan Trengove nearly killed himself. And Danny Tommo sits in a cell while she sits in a BBC studio.
THE FULL PICTURE
She thinks false rape accusers should be sectioned, not imprisoned. She thinks innocent men getting twenty two years would make her quite happy. She thinks male suicide is culture war. She thinks your concerns about small boats are sensationalized. She thinks your protests are thuggery. She thinks your journalists are grifters. She thinks your grief is content.
She does not think you exist. She thinks you are a problem to be managed by a state that shares her values.
And she has been welcomed into every major broadcaster in Britain to tell you so.
