#bbclaurak: "If its urgent do you commit to doing this before 2029?" "There are commitments in the manifesto that would make it hard to do in this parliament" There you have it. Andy Burnham is going to do f**k all about social care.

1. Labour currently have a huge majority. After next election they probably won't (if they win at all) and will have the excuse that they don't have the numbers to push it through. 2. If Burnham allows himself to be hidebound by the Starmer/Reeves vision, what's the point of him?

The SNP Scottish Government have been funding this for years. 2016 when free personal care was introduced.

Trust. He doesn't know the meaning of the word. They're all the same but people will keep voting for them then complaining they all fail to deliver. He's just another useful coward.

Where’s the money coming from then? It’s not as though the Tories left the coffers full of cash. He can’t tackle every issue at once. At least he’s trying which is more than the last government did.

Andy Burnham: "I didn't become Prime Minister to just make a few tweaks around the edges. I want to change the way this country works." 🤔

that's not what he said though is it, he clearly said it would be laid out for people to vote on in the next G.E.

Ah so you didn’t listen to the interview. You’re just here for a bit of light baiting. Bravo.

Andy is coming to play not do good for the UK😡

@BareLeft he has to raise income tax on lower and middle earners, which is a manifesto break

He actually said it would be in the next manifesto for 2029.

He is doing nothing about anything.
