Burnham is a duplicitous liar as is most of his party...
🤨 WATCH as Richard Madeley EXPOSES Andy Burnham’s real Brexit plans live on @GMB
Andy Burnham completely gave the game away on Labour’s quiet scheme to drag Britain back into the EU while being grilled by Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid.
Susanna hit him with the betrayal of his own voters. Sixty-five per cent of his constituents voted Leave and he had promised he would not reopen the entire Brexit argument.
His answer was slippery: “I said we wouldn’t rerun the referendum and that’s not what I’m doing.”
The wording is deliberate. He only ruled out rerunning the referendum. He left the door wide open on rejoining.
Then Madeley confronted him head-on and Burnham could barely keep a straight face.
Madeley: “You’re flying kites, aren’t you, Prime Minister? Watching and listening to what you were saying over the weekend, it was a classic case of somebody testing the water. You’re testing the public mood. You’re checking to see, and I’m sure you’re looking very closely at, the reaction that you’ve had from the public and from the media this morning and over the weekend.”
Watch Burnham’s face as Madeley presses further. In that exact moment. The smile almost breaks through. He knows Madeley has nailed him: “You’re looking to see if actually this is on. If actually it’s on, to suggest maybe in the next manifesto that we should rejoin the EU?”
Burnham ducked and weaved, going round the houses to avoid a straight answer. “I was asked a question Richard so I didn’t fly that kite. I was asked and I try to give honest answers.”
Try? He tries to give honest answers? That is a very odd way to put it. Why not just say he gives honest answers?
The grin told the whole story. He would be a terrible poker player.
Labour’s plan is now obvious. Rejoining the EU goes into the next manifesto. No referendum. Over 17 million people cast their votes in an historic decision to leave. Whether you agreed or disagreed, that vote happened and it cannot be casually overturned without another referendum. Anything less is a disgrace.

Higher inflation isn’t just driving up prices, it’s increasing the benefits bill. Either way, it’s working households who end up picking up the tab.
Conservatives will cut the benefits bill, protect those who need help and get Britain working again.

A dangerous man who can't help shooting his mouth off.
Lied to the voters of Makerfield to get into parliament.
No clear policy on Brexit.
Burnham is just doing more damage every day.
Tragically deluded
🇬🇧🇪🇺 Burnham will make history.
He has politically stabilised the UK, securing 32% support
He will secure a hybrid agreement with the EU while full membership is negotiated.
His foreign policy is strongly pro-Ukraine, pro-Europe and in favour of European unity.
The EU is becoming a joint economic and military bloc, and the UK must be part of it.
Burnham could become the UK’s best prime minister of the past half-century.

No, Brexit didn’t cause the ‘small boats’ crisis
Blaming Brexit for the ‘small boats’ crisis has become fashionable. Even the Prime Minister has now joined in, although his own Home Secretary appears to disagree (👇).
Some argue that the problem began when the UK left the Dublin III agreement, which allowed asylum seekers to be returned to the first safe EU country they had entered. But there are much better explanations for the rise in small boat crossings, which began in 2018 (when the UK was still in the EU).
The most important is the tightening of security at lorry parks, on trains and ferries, and additional restrictions at airports. This closed off alternative routes and forced people smugglers to change their business model. Illegal migrants who now arrive by boat are also more likely to be intercepted and therefore counted in official figures, whereas previously they just disappeared.
Moreover, the UK rarely used Dublin III anyway, which further undermines claims that its mere existence was an effective deterrent.
And it would be naïve to believe that EU countries would now be willing to take back large numbers of illegal migrants, especially in the current political climate. Indeed, France's own efforts to prevent small boats leaving its shores for Britain seem ineffective, despite a bilateral agreement and UK taxpayer funding...

This says it all. Parliament has cancelled the debate planned for this evening on AI - because the debate beforehand on the Post Office is (like the post itself) taking too long. On the day Anthropic files for its IPO Britain is debating Victorian communications infrastructure

The cheap green lie
You are told that solar and wind are cheap
But you need near-100% backup when no sun or wind, paying for two systems
Data for 2025 shows that
cramming in more solar and wind makes electricity overall more and more costly

The EU has "acute problems" that are facing its carmakers?
Did France and Germany leave the EU?
A France-Germany car deal has helped break a stalemate in the European Parliament over two major industry measures.
But the agreement will do little to address the acute problems facing Europe’s struggling automakers.

This Labour govt are out of their depth. This is scarily incompetent. It’s no wonder Labour are bankrupting us and taxes are going up to pay for it.

Britain never voted for Burnham, yet he is betraying the very people he claims to represent.
He has absolutely no mandate to open our borders to millions of migrants.
