After Labour conference the charge Burnhamism is only vibes and TikTok videos no longer holds. Like it to not, the Prime Minister has seized the political agenda. And Kemi Badenoch has to be very, very careful how she responds > Daily Mail > dailymail.com/news/article-1…

DAN HODGES: The PM has seized control of the political agenda

The enthusiastic cheers that greeted Burnham's maiden speech as Labour leader were replaced by hard questions. A number of which he's struggled to answer.

All he needs now is to win an election as Prime Minister instead of ruling as a dictator.

How big do you think the Manchester City scandal is Dan & potential implication Burnham is involved?

His comments yesterday were very stupid. But I don't think it will have a lasting impact. So long as he doesn't repeat them.

If I was @KemiBadenoch I’d read Barbara Jordan’s Keynote address in 1976. My advice? 1. Speak *over* Burnham, not just *at* him 2. Admit the Tories failed 3. Define what Conservatism is *for* 4. Reclaim the common good AB is selling hope and you don’t beat that with anger!

He’s crashing the economy and dangerous criminals are whooping with delight and thanking him this morning, for enabling them to commit further crimes, whilst their victims are cowering in their homes. You are certifiably insane 🤯

Wait until the budget. They will soon tank in the polls no matter what bullshit Burnham puts out.

All Burnham is doing is committing the Country to 300 million a day in interest payments and rising on our debt. Not exactly grabbing the initiative is it Dan.

We also need a media that will hold Burnham to account. 2 weeks ago he said Social security above national security which is a major blunder but that's all forgotten about already

He opens his gob without thinking and what he does say has to be corrected. He is stuck in the past and yes he is the tiktok man and most certainly not the sweetie man. He will always be known as the COUP man.

"...in my opinion". Crucial bit you left out there Dan, as well as reminding people you worked for the Labour Party.

It's no longer just vibes & Tiktok videos as the #Burnham bankruptcy crystalises. Farage and Badenoch just need to wait for this to feed through the economy and watch Labour's support collapse.

Duplicity central is what Burnhamism is, and any journalist who thinks otherwise is 100% captured.
