Problem is that he needs a sfe seat to be dropped in to --- but there ain't anyI reckon Starmer knows it's over. But he's been forced to agree he's going to cling on until Burnham becomes an MP, then he can hand over straight to him.
If he quits now some other random would take over. And it appears that Burnham is the only one in the Labour party who's not completely incompetent or insane. Or at least not known to be, he'll probably prove himself to be no better if he gets a chance.
There will be a safe seat that the incumbent will be gifted a place in the Lords as a reward and Burnham will step into it. Its labours only chance, I gave advice the other day to labour and thats dont let starmer be your Biden, leaving it too late to replace him.
