Can Andy Burnham dethrone Starmer?

Update: 2025-09-16

Description

'King in the North' Andy Burnham is supposedly weighing up a return to Westminster, with eyes on Starmer's spot at the top of a divided Labour Party. Ed and Laura discuss if the man and timing are right, as well as Paul Ovenden's resignation over explicit comments made about Dianne Abbott, and Danny Kruger's defection to Reform.
