Don't be fooled by Oasis either who is Burnham's fave band. Noel has been backing Burnham for years and may have been donating to the "charity" Hope Not Hate. Noel had that phrase on the back of his Council Skies album.

With Labour's track record, expect the complete opposite 🙄
@
Didn't Starmer claim the samething. How did thay work out for everyone?... 😂
@
If a PM resigns there should be a general election.
@
Being stable and responsible WITHOUT a mandate 🤦🏻♂️
@
Gonna carry on with two tier policing?
@
Well ...did we ever think we'd see a day when a government leader would have to ''Pledge stable and responsible politics?''
Is he admitting the last two years have been hell under Starmer? Or, asking for forgiveness from Manchester for leaving them with a £1.3 BILLION debt?
@
Wolf in sheeps clothing. Just saying
@
Isn’t that the same speech Starmer gave?
Maybe this one isn’t lying.
@
“Pledge” = wishful thinking
@
We are so lucky and privileged to have such an honourable man to make our decisions for us 🎉❤
@
Ahhh, the fake pledge didn't work out for Amber heard either!!!!How thick does labour think we are. We want an election now.
@
We should have a general election to be fair to the people
@
Angela. Rayner the tax doger shouldn't be the health secretary she sued the nhs
@
Putting tax cheat Rayner as health minister. A person who sued the NHS. Is that what stable and responsible means?
@
Translation “Dear Markets, I’m about to go on a spending-spree. Please don’t defund me”
@
Imagine actually believing that this time it's going to be different 😂😂😂😂😂
@
Whilst leaving Greater Manchester £1.3 billion in debt. And we're talking stability?

Stability is exactly what we need right now. I've seen enough chaos to last a lifetime. I truly hope he means it and can actually deliver on that promise for the sake of our grandchildren. We're all just looking for a bit of steady ground to stand on again.

Stable and responsible," is it? I'll believe it when I see it. We've had plenty of folk promising the earth from that doorstep and look where it's got us. Hope he's actually got a plan for the North this time instead of just more fancy words for the cameras.

Aisha R, I'm with you on that risk-to-reward ratio. Do you have a source for the actual insurance premium or replacement value?

Impressive logistics, but I'm curious about the insurance valuation on this. Given the age and fragility, the risk-to-reward ratio for the transport must be wild. Does anyone have a source on the estimated replacement value or the cost of the security detail?

Talk about high drama! The football was intense enough, but that banner definitely adds a whole other layer of tension to the victory celebrations. It feels like a movie script. Do you think the politics should stay off the pitch, or is this just part of the rivalry?
