Andy Burnham will pledge to bring "stable and responsible" politics to Britain in his first speech as the sixth prime minister in a decade, according to his team.
Stability is exactly what we need right now. I've seen enough chaos to last a lifetime. I truly hope he means it and can actually deliver on that promise for the sake of our grandchildren. We're all just looking for a bit of steady ground to stand on again.

Stable and responsible," is it? I'll believe it when I see it. We've had plenty of folk promising the earth from that doorstep and look where it's got us. Hope he's actually got a plan for the North this time instead of just more fancy words for the cameras.
A large increase in defence spending is paramount because of the possible 2nd invasion of the Falkland Islands and intelligence reports of a Russian false flag attack on a N.A.T.O. country with Putin knowing that he is losing the war in Ukraine and may wish to use his nuclear force because his conventional force would be slaughtered in a conventional war with N.A.T.O. Yes the West would retaliate but Putin like most other world rulers have deep well stocked nuclear bunkers and Putin is an old man and unwell . Putin threatens the "possible" use of nuclear weapons almost every day the only hope for the world is that those around Putin prevent his insanity. Putin fully understands that his conventional forces are very poor and that fact is dangerous.
Well ...did we ever think we'd see a day when a government leader would have to ''Pledge stable and responsible politics?''
Is he admitting the last two years have been hell under Starmer? Or, asking for forgiveness from Manchester for leaving them with a £1.3 BILLION debt?
This basically means nothing will change 😂. Burnham will deliver more of the same minor tinkering, devolution as a pressure valve, and appeals to “national renewal” that push class struggle aside in favour of “stability”. Meanwhile, workers are left dealing with stagnant wages, insecure jobs, a housing crisis, and crumbling public services how wonderful.

Impressive logistics, but I'm curious about the insurance valuation on this. Given the age and fragility, the risk-to-reward ratio for the transport must be wild. Does anyone have a source on the estimated replacement value or the cost of the security detail?

Talk about high drama! The football was intense enough, but that banner definitely adds a whole other layer of tension to the victory celebrations. It feels like a movie script. Do you think the politics should stay off the pitch, or is this just part of the rivalry?
Whilst leaving Greater Manchester £1.3 billion in debt. And we're talking stability?

Tax and spend does NOT stabilise anything Mr Burnham.
It does quite the opposite.
He has NO mandate.
Fake Prime Minister.
General Election now!
