Trump says Starmer will resign as Prime Minister..
 Adding.. 'I wish him well'

I wonder if Trump worked that out by himself..

[klondike]

It'll be his superhuman IQ at work.

I wish Trump would say the same about himself.

Seems that starmer has finally announced his intention to resign, he obviously got orders from wherever he takes them. Maybe third time lucky for whats-his-name.

I think they said July he'll be gone,  didn't they?

But will this new guy be any better? He's still Labour with all the same Labour policies. Rachel might find she's out of a job too.

No

He is apparntly moree left wing than Starmer so it doesn't auger well

I'm wondering if they will hold an election or if the new PM has already been decided giving the next incumbent a walkover? 

All I know about Burnham is it claims to have the shortest pier in the country.

[klondike]

Very appropriate given how Makerfield is part of Wigan which is also famous for a tiny pier

...And the road leading to it.

Seems a bit like a crowning doesn't it.  How can a man who will have been an MP for a couple of weeks, become Prime Minister ? 

[klondike]

He'll have no mandate. Not that Starmer did for much of what was done. You can guarantee that anything that remains of the tattered manifesto they were elected on will just become rather rough and shiny toilet paper. Buckle your seatbelts.

It may even be getting Brenda riled again (if we are lucky)

What a pity she's not a member.

He has been referred to as 'King of the north'..
Much excitement and hysteria in parliament...
A Conservative member called out. 'You are not the new Messiah' .... to which Burnham replied 'But I'm a naughty boy'... He certainly has a quick sense of humour.. Like a bloody circus...
 
I felt a bit sad for Starmer when speaking outside No 10..
He lacks charisma and is not a good speaker..

I feel another Johnson coming on.. he got too big for his boots..

[Raven]

Today's News says he intends replacing Rachel Reeves.
