UK barrister and broadcaster Andrew Eborn says the “fracturing” of right-wing parties in the UK is severely complicating their path to electoral victory. “He’s [Rupert Lowe] taking some votes away. When we’re looking at what might happen, Andy Burnham’s in a very good position because his popularity rating is much higher than Keir Starmer,” Mr Eborn told Sky News Digital Presenter James Bolt. “But the right is still fragmented. As soon as you divide the right, then you’re basically dividing votes.”
