YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“I think there's quite a backlash coming up against Burnham's almost self-appointed idea that he's entitled to take over the premiership.”

Times columnists Michael Binyon and Alys Denby make the case for Keir Starmer to remain in post, doubtful that Andy Burnham,,“seen as a carpetbagger” would take the country in the right direction.

Michael Binyon, Alys Denby, and Patrick Maguire were speaking to Ed Vaizey on Times Radio. Listen live every Friday 10am-1pm.
