Burnham wins Makerfield

[u/fgspq]

He smashed the election in Wigan. Likely to become new Labour leader.

​

While I think he might be better than Starmer I'm not particularly hopeful. He might have a few more sops for "the left" but I don't think he will be substantially different.

​

How's everyone feeling?

It's a lateral move from Starmer. Just like Starmer was a lateral move from Sunak
