15:30 The unreasonability argument is INSANE as the previous caller points out in the span of just 2-3 years we nationalised and built the NHS AFTER WWII! If now in the modern age with the internet and supply chains established for OVER 80 YEARS NOW we "can't build industry or infrastructure" then we may as well give up now! Accept that we will NEVER have anything and start building SLEEPING PODS IN FIELDS since that's the only way we'll avoid mass homelessness and a drug epidemic like America has with Fentonyl.

And it begins! The people of the UK begin their quest to destroy their next Prime Minister and run him out of office. How fast can they do it this time? New national pastime - tearing down every leader and criticizing their every move until they resign. Wouldn't want to recognize the fact that UK voters shot themselves in the foot with Brexit and now every leader is just doing their best to manage the UK's decline.

Completely disagree with that first write-in at 4:00. Starmer proved to be a Chamberlain-like figure as it pertains to Trump. Let's hope that Burnham is more of a Churchill.

It is not worth to have dreams, it is not worth to do your best - in the end of the day the bandits of this planet will not respect the rules and will take everything for themselves.

UK has its own Blob to deal with.....

It will only take a few weeks to find out whether the Labour MPs and the public are going to give Burnham more time to deliver than they gave Starmer.

Even if I was a betting man I'd be keeping my money in my pocket.

The Americans already hate him, because he is a "socialist". Not that most Americans actually know what socialism is.

Will he or won't he?

I see these comments and it's actually pretty obvious why Britain is in the state it is.
People were unhappy with Starmer, they got a new PM and now they are ALREADY impatient and clinical about this guy.

We had 14 years of Tories, they made a mess out of the country, but everyone expects labour to make everything better overnight and aren't willing to give the new guy the benefit of the doubt.

We deserve everything that's coming for us if this is the mindset

Tax Wealth, Not Work.
Equality before the Law!!
If you don't understand that, then you are blind to what's really going on for average working class families across the country.

It's the grey suits behind the MP's that govern this country so nothing has changed.
