Starmer vs Burnham - The first punch has landed
Lewis Goodall joins Shelagh Fogarty to go over Andy Burnham’s victory in the Makerfield by-election against Reform's Robert Kenyon.
They go over how Burnham built up his power base away from Westminster, and almost 'in spite of it'. Later they speculate on what he will do next and when he will launch his leadership challenge.
Lewis has nailed his colours to the mast, calling Burnham 'the far superior politician', and that 'only a Burnham-led Labour party can lead Labour to victory against Reform'.
