Reposted by Jon DennisAdam Schwarz @adamjschwarz.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I still find it hard to process that Andy Burnham is our PM. He sort of just appeared and walked into 10 Downing St. But that conference speech was outstanding. Authentic, principled, focused, passionate and deeply moving. These are the qualities required to fight Farage's populist insurgency. 713626
Reposted by Jon DennisAnthony Painter @anthonypainter.bsky.social · 29/09/2026The Burnham speech: firstly, it was a vision. We've not had a national vision for two decades at least. If he can persuade the country on fixing the EU relationship, political reform, establishing a new care system and his theory of growth holds then he will be a transformational Prime Minister. 1457
