YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

“I don't think even Keir Starmer thinks he's going to be the leader at the next election.”

Andy Burnham shouldn’t rush in his expected ascendence to Number Ten, as he spends “political capital” in the Makerfield by-election campaign to a lower approval rating in the polls, says director of the Compass think tank, Neal Lawson.

Neal Lawson was speaking to Kait Borsay and Adam Boulton on the Evening Edition on Times Radio. Listen live every Monday to Thursday from 7-10pm.
