I agree. They need to join together with Rupert Lowe as the Leader.
It doesn't matter who. Either is fine by me, the other as deputy.
But that won't happen before Makerfield. Which may let Burnham in. That may not be a bad thing, he'll be just as terrible as the rest and then can't be held up as the almighty socialist dream PM we never had.
If Burnham doesn't get in now then he'll probably become leader at some point, by whatever devious means. In time for the election after Reform's first term. It's best we experience reality before then, or some will still believe he's the saviour of the nation.
The bond markets will erupt as soon as he becomes PM, so it should be over pretty quickly. He's already said he's going to increase spending and borrowing, which just isn't possible now.

Then some other labour sap will step down to make way for Burnham
Re forms candidate is a vaccine denying plumber.

Outcome of contest for seat just outside Wigan could change the course of British politics for years to come

Is it really worth reading the Labour party's own toxic magazine's profile of their enemy's candidate?Re forms candidate is a vaccine denying plumber.

I'll give it a skim...
he appeared to cast doubt on the efficacy of a vaccine
"appeared"... "a vaccine"...
Which one? (they don't state). Do you think that discussion about efficacy of vaccines should be banned?
You're drinking propaganda every time you read that vile rag.
The grauniad is dull rather than vile, but it does seem a vaccine denying plumber may get elected. I’d have thought you would welcome that.
Fiction.
A lot of re form voters believe it, and are encouraged by their hero Trumpf.
I mean that your allegation that he's "vaccine denying" is fiction, as in you made it up.

Brilliant, thanks!
Context:
“Deleted posts on X show he appeared to cast doubt on the efficacy of a vaccine, interacted with a Dutch far-right influencer and praised Donald Trump.”
On the subject of Wes saying the UK should rejoin the EU - whatever one's opinion, the argument by the anti-EU lobby that by rejoining we'd lose comtrol of our borders is a joke. Like we've had secure borders these last 10 years?
The EU would want billions out of the UK to rejoin
Plus the UK would have to adopt the Euro that would cost billions
If it’s even possible ?? It’s years away
Plus there would have to be another referendum ?
So best advised every one sucks it up and carry on regardless
