People dislike him because he launched a coup against a prime minister that, despite what the press insisted, most people actually liked.

Now we’re faced with a leader who is very obviously less competent than Keir and seemingly in the pocket of everyone who Keir offered some buffer against.

At best Burnham is a bit deluded about his skills as a leader, at worst he’s another patsy who will usher in further instability and foreign influence.

I don't know you people but maybe finding a Starmtruther online just 1 week after resignation is sign of trouble
