I posted this on another thread earlier, it is what Burnham and his cabinet colleagues all need to find within them.

OK, I agree that some good stuff is getting done. But Starmer said he stood for all of this, then dumped it once he won the leadership. That was my point.

That's a mad thing to post, and I hope you realise that. Can you explain why you think socialism is so terrible and that capitalism is so great? Remember, though, that capitalism has got us into the mess we are currently enduring. This is what socialists gave us:

There is ample scope to raise more tax revenue without penalising ordinary people. Richard Murphy's ideas published in the guardian just before the last GE lay it all out clearly.

The 'Fraud' book by Paul Holden has a lot of info about McSweeney and Labour Together manufacturing antisemitic smears to discredit Corbyn. Even accusing some Jewish members of Labour of antisemitism for standing up for Palestinian rights.

Absolutely agree about the immigration policy. It's far too right-wing and is pushed by women who would be better suited to Reform Ltd than the Labour Party. She penned anti Corbyn stuff with McSweeney and invented antisemitic rubbish to discredit him. I'm reading this, and it's quite troubling.

Agreed, but what Labour really needs is a charismatic media advisor who will shout the good stuff it has done and is doing to the media and make the bastards print it & air it. In the 400+ Labour MPs, there must be someone like that. Also, Starmer should enact all of this:
