Writer and Broadcaster Esther Krakue says Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham has twice been rejected as Labour leader and questions why voters should back him now. “Andy Burnham's reputation as a messiah is utterly baffling,” Ms Krakue told Sky News host Chris Kenny. “Manchester is a city that’s in hundreds of millions of pounds worth of debt. “This is a man who was rejected not once but twice as Labour leader.
