Burnham brings forward ban on 'subscription traps'
Burnham once again sweating the small and easy stuff, whilst ignoring difficult things like the climate emergency was the UK plunges into a 5th heatwave of the summer with crops failing because of the drought. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Perhaps it's unfair to say Burnham is ignoring the climate emergency as reports have been suggesting he's planning on allowing more oil extraction. Which will only make things worse.
He is trying to control the news cycle, introducing policies everyday. Some will be big most smaller. I agree most of the policies seem trivial, but he is giving an impression that he listening to the gen pub. Compare to Starmer, who didn't. Toast.
The small and easy stuff is small and easy to do, while also building the political capital needed for the more controversial* stuff. It's also been the stuff in his wheelhouse too. Hopefully this summer is full of people like Milliband successfully making the case that dealing with the climate
Maybe he feels that if he can make.small improvements to people's lives then they will accept the bigger things he has to do later
🤔 Don't understand why Burnham isn't doing more about the climate?? Not only is action desperately needed, it would also help win back more voters from the Greens. He could: ✅ Ban North Sea drilling ✅ Ban new runways ✅ Enact a National Water Conservation plan ✅ Nationalise the water companies.
His Register of Interests still not updated, maybe that's why?
He could but his owner’s wouldn’t like that
Well millions of British people appear to think this is 'normal', 'just summer', 'the climate has always changed', 'net zero will bankrupt us', 'climate change is a hoax', 'it's a scam to raise taxs' etc. He is still trying to win over the Reform voters and former red wall who think like that.
