Andy Burnham accused of a 'climate COP out' ahead of COP31
"Andy Burnham has appointed the US consultancy giant BCG into the heart of Downing Street to draw up his 10 Year Plan for the country. Last year they worked with Donald Trump on his plan for a 'Gaza riviera' to permanently ethnically cleanse Gaza. There are no words." via Zack Polanski
AnthonyF27210This is unbelievable. So, Andy Burnham asks the Amerticans for a plan to fix the UK? Pathetic.
Llanc6Every day another reason to loathe 'Labour'.
Andy Burnham is a friend of terror state Israel.
Jackie5Why does Burnham insist on wasting our money like this. Will there be a public consultation on what the citizens of the uk need, I.e. living wages, a fully functioning NHS, clean water, a liveable planet, etc., followed by an exercise on what needs to happen to achieve it?
dadonadyingplanet.bsky.social3Burnham continues to disappoint... another day, another poor decision.
Peter Thomas2Just as America is moving away from Trumpism and the Israeli lobby we are heading towards it.
Andy Burnham has appointed these US consultants to draw up his 10 Year Plan, hot on the heels of the same company drawing up a Gaza ethnic cleansing plan for Trump. Mandelson moment for Burnham www.ft.com/content/c0e6...
Cleona18So many centerists keep arguing to me on here that we just need to give Burnham 'more time', and be 'pragmatic'... but how much more evidence do they need that he's Starmer 2.0? I guess it's existential for them. He was their great hope that Labour was salvageable from the McSweeney/Mandelson era.
Steve Cambridge9The way he's going he won't last 10 months let alone ten years.
Lynne #TaxTheRich #WelfareNotWarfare. Eco-Socialist. Pro-🇵🇸7It’s becoming extremely clear that Burnham isn’t going to be that new broom sweeping clean, the exact opposite in fact, he’s just another corporate glove puppet!!
Lefty (Colin) Wright6Solidarity Mothin It's all so predictable. The labour party is what corporate and special interests capture looks like No ideas, principles, or backbone They didn't win on policy, they won on anger at Tories They could use their majority to deliver: Wealth tax Nationalised utilities Etc But no
Andy Martell 🇯🇪5BCG… Palantir… are there anymore US companies that Labour want to sell us out to?
annmayevans.bsky.social3You mean as a political party they can’t draw up their own plans this is ridiculous. I’m sure the Greens could design a plan that will benefit the environment, country , its residents etc . Oh dear handed to an USA company whatever could go wrong ?
Ed Poole114Labour is oursourcing government to private companies linked with the far right and genocide.
Nelly Probin13Coincidentally, James Purnell Burnham's chief of staff and best friend used to work for the Boston Consulting Group.
Denis Buckley5<sigh> Burnham. Another neoliberal from the Single Replaceable Party (which consists of ALL OF the Labour party, Tory party and Liberal Democrat party). Nothing will change until they, and the choke hold of oligarch money are purged from our 'body politic'.
diaminedave.bsky.social3It appears Labour, as a party, seem to be using their buying power to support firms that are doing the planning work for Trump's ethnic cleansing of Gaza. bsky.app/profile/moth...
Craigie 🇵🇸 🇸🇩🚩☮️🔻Proudly Un-British2Maybe I am just an uneducated pleb but why the hell do they need private consultants, isn't that what the civil service is for?
PxDunn2The privatisation of policy Or is Burnham just giving our money to the people who TELL HIM what to do?
If only Andy Burnham took action against actual racist mobs on our streets and Black and brown people being firebombed and intimidated out of their homes the way he took action against the Green party for their zionism is racism motion eh
Plasmama12Racist assaults on the medical profession not prioritised like pensioners protesting genocide. 🤔
Julie 🏳️⚧️ 🏴☠️ 🏳️🌈 Montoya1If a foreign government, drunk on power after decades of pulling out the race card at the first whiff of legitimate criticism, offered Andy Burnham a few inexpensive trinkets, he would bite their arm off.
infj-afreethinker.bsky.social1@andyburnham.bsky.social is just too stale already.
One of the architects of Keir Stamer’s Brexit red lines has called for Andy Burnham to abandon them at the next election, saying a new relationship with the EU would protect the UK from global threats www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
pmf2They'd have to stop being awful to trans people to rejoin the EU, so it'll be the usual fudge if it's not just more gaslighting
Jim Johnson1While Labour remain timid we will never progress. The idea promulgated by Lisa Nandy typical of Starmer’s time is ‘don’t wake the monster’. Burnham defeated them at Makerfield which showed the monster is not what it was!
Andy Burnham has appointed a controversial firm involved in Donald Trump's 'Gaza riviera' proposal to draft up his 10-year plan 👇 www.thenational.scot/news/2671035...
Andy Martell 🇯🇪3Wat?…. a company involved in the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians? … a few days after a company involved in the slaughter of Palestinians gets an extension to the NHS contract? It’s almost as if these companies have one thing in common ?
Peter Hamilton 🏴”Extremist”🏴🇺🇦🇵🇸3Bumham is not very good at this PM stuff, what a surprise not. Poundland PM soon to be a busted flush just like his predecessor.
brunswickroadbill.bsky.social2Getting a private consultant to prepare his plan for government? You must be kidding.
Stravaigin-laddie 🏴2Weak, weak, weak…compromised, compromised, compromised!!! Rinse and repeat with every feckin WM govt it seems. This sounds like a massive fuck-up in the making. Yet again why isn’t everyone in Scotland listening to this shit-show and deciding it’s time to govern ourselves!
puchmahoin.bsky.social1Does this mean we're getting everything spray painted gold?
Shortbreadfairy©️1Aye and l didn't see the Unions kicking off either
I may have been defending Burnham for too long. If this is correct, then enough is enough. It's like asking a fox to design a henhouse. www.thenational.scot/news/2671035...
pmf3His Chief of Staff James Purnell used to have a senior role at Boston Consulting Group and likely still has lots of chums there Flint, the lobbying firm he owned, worked for: BP, Glencore and Siemens Energy among other firms whose interests strongly conflict with the public interest in this context
