Burnham has destroyed two of the main arguments of the Westminster parties. He's pensioned off the claim that Scottish state pensions can only be protected in the UK and by opening the door to an EU referendum he's blown up the argument against indyref2. weegingerdug.wordpress.com/2026/10/02/b...

He has basically copied his new policies from Scotland and made them look like his own the mans just another fraud, instead of being honest and saying these are good policies in use in Scotland and we should adopt them in England, they can’t have Scotland looking more progressive than England.

The Scottish Government manages its budget - restricted as it is and without borrowing powers - so that personal care, prescriptions, and university fees are provided without payment at point of delivery to the people of Scotland. And no charge is made for Westminster's heinous Bedroom Tax.
