‘Political chameleon’: Andy Burnham has ‘U-turned’ on every issue
Spiked Online Editor Tom Slater says newly elected Labour MP Andy Burnham is a “political chameleon” who has “U-turned on absolutely every issue he has ever talked about”. “Next to Keir Starmer, he looks a lot more human, a lot more capable,” Mr Slater told Sky News host Caroline Marcus. “Andy Burnham is someone who is a bit of a political chameleon. He has U-turned on absolutely every issue he has ever talked about. “I think in time the public will start to see that really he is not that far away from Starmer, who was also famous for U-turns. “If we’ve got a few more years of an unelected prime minister, then there might be more time for the public to realise that Burnham is a lot more like the rest of them.”
