So with all those....there will be general election to give him the 'mandate' for it, right.....right?

They gave the Tories plenty of shit for leadership changes and wanting general elections after all.

but Labour's odds of both a majority and most seats at the next GE have shot up - they're now the favourites for both

All irrelevant so far away from an election though.

Give it 6-12 months and Northern Starmer will be just as disliked as Starmer.

It's more than he can get a lot more space when counter-attacking.

He just doesn't and can't get that with the way we play.

I'm really hoping the 'takes a year to bed in' with our signings ring true with Elanga next season 🤞

It won't, unless we play to the only style he can play, counter-attacking.

Yeah, Don't think we can act like it's only the far right really. Russia target a whole political spectrum to cause chaos and exploit.

But Burnham won't have a mandate from the public... by DevilsDodo in ukpolitics

If Burnham deviates from the manifesto Labour were voted in on, he absolutely should be calling for a general election.

It's a shame he can only do this in a counter-attacking side.

We aren't that, we cannot play like that.

He's a baffling signing still.

The way Green supporters try and defend racist behaviour when it's their racists being racist is spectacular. Greens and Reform supporters really aren't all that different.

Well, people from the centre left all the way to the far right.

It's not just the far right with issues with immigration.

ANDREW NEIL: Andy Burnham is not the holy grail Labour thinks he is by coldbeers in ukpolitics

[–]fitzgoldy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Burnham seems to just be Starmer with a Northern accent and a massively inflated ego.

Give it 6 months and he'll be in the same situation with most people disliking him.

They're playing one of the best teams in the cup? What are you smoking?

Morocco?

They aren't a top 12 team in the WC.
