Josh Simons, who has resigned his seat for Burnham, said:
“This moment is is actually about more than just Keir Starmer or Andy Burnham or Wes Streeting… It’s about a fundamental question for my party … ‘Can they win back the trust of working class people that they’ve been losing for decades?
If Andy wins the by-election, my view is that the different bits of the party should come together behind Andy.”

“She doesn’t have a passion for cooking.”
