Just leaving well alone until a GE is actually due in 2029 gets my vote!!
I know Burnham recently said he wouldn’t hold an election in the next 12 months, but maybe the polling will persuade him otherwise. If the polling is good for Labour then surely it’s a good time to have an election. He could secure a more ambitious manifesto and keep Reform out of number 10 for at least five years.
But of course it would be a risk. In 2017, Theresa May called an election because the polling didn’t look too bad for the Tories, and then during the election campaign, the Tory vote declined while the Labour vote rose.
The moment its announced you would see a flood of disinformation campaigns and endless propaganda about how bad the UK is.
He has to do something about the online ads, gb news, and yes even the newspapers.
Seems a bit late for leveson2 to me but maybe thats a start.
Agreed, it should have been his first order of business; possibly second after banning billionaire funding of political parties (not just foreign billionaires: all of them).
We’re already seeing that. Look at what the Tories, Reform, Restore (and Reflux?) are endlessly shouting about.
