Farage: ‘Chameleon’ Burnham will drag UK further to the left

Nigel Farage has wished Andy Burnham well in his imminent appointment as prime minister – but warned GB News viewers the Makerfield MP will drag Labour even further to the left. The Reform UK leader spoke to GB News reporter Will Godley at the Conservative Political Action Conference Great Britain (CPAC GB) today after describing Mr Burnham as a “great chameleon of British politics” during his speech at the event in London. Mr Farage told the People’s Channel he expects “lots of platitudes and warm words” from the newly elected Labour leader, “but very little positive action that will do anything to turn around the deep crisis this country is in”. He added: “I wish him well. If he suddenly announces he’s going to leave the ECHR and start drilling in the north, if he does all of those things, I’ll be delighted – I just don’t see it.”
