Oh god yes. The naysaying on this… and in fact on anything hopeful… is beyond tedious. Where does anything start? With persuasion. Not the end product. We can’t know all the answers now but we can enthuse about the campaign, the idea, the hope… Why stamp so pedantically on that?

If people don't want to pay tax to make this country function and help out the rest of society and particularly those who need help most... then maybe they should move to Dubai and stop bleating about it. Really sick to death of it.

All this 'well you've forgotten to ask the EU, you won't get your previous deal you know' commentary is so boring and theatrically dispassionate. Everyone knows that.

Why did @skynewsrss.bsky.social interview people in Runcorn particularly. They didn’t make it clear there would be social care and it is after all the only area nearby that is Reform!!!!

Most striking of all is that this is explicitly a very *pro-politics* speech, a direct rebuttal to the anti-politics that is so widespread. And rightly so: politics can change things, it is an admirable thing to choose to engage in and a duty for us all to step forward and pursue.

Finally, a Prime Minister has admitted Brexit has done 'more harm than good'. Burnham has promised to lay out "the different options" for what a new UK-EU relationship would look like. EU membership is the only option that delivers £92 billion of growth. Help us ensure Andy takes that option. 👇

I've been to a lot of party conferences. Burnham's speech was the best I've heard in a long time. It was emotive but with major policy announcements and a clear diagnosis of how he thinks the country has taken the wrong path. "Public control" is how he thinks it can be put right.

Incidentally, Burnham referring to the two previous conference votes on proportional representation is a tribute to the diligent work of campaigners in the party. They worked extremely hard to build a base of support in Labour, against the odds.

#ukpolitics Brilliant speech from Andy Burnham. He has laid out what he wants for the country and a National care service is going to resonate with many people who have had relatives in care. It was a passionate speech with so much that I agree with so looking forward to 10 year plan.

A Prime Minister seeking to fix this country's pressing problems and the broken politics and stagnant consensus that underpins so much of it... A PM promising real improvements rather than unicorns sunlit uplands and an agenda of hate... Who knows? This could be catching.

Farage honks his mouth off about ongoing police investigations, when told not to. His Welsh leader is in prison for taking bribes from Russia. He whips up riots. He’s in bed with Trump, foreign money, crooks and crypto billionaires…. A massive problem with national security is Farage himself.

Faragists rely on the narrative of "men on boats" creating a de facto Fifth Column in the UK to feed their agenda and to stir up hostility and to win votes and ultimately power. Suckers fall for it. Media boosts it. We've been here so many times before and you'd think we'd all wise up but hey ho
