Vacuous and vague: Inside Andy Burnham’s speech of empty promises | The Daily T

On Friday’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg dissect Andy Burnham’s Labour leadership victory speech, as the incoming prime minister sets out his vision for Britain before accepting the keys to No 10 on Monday. Our hosts discuss his five promises for Britain, the socialist nature of his speech, and who Mr Burnham really is as he seems to stoke a divisive North-South narrative in his first public address as Labour leader. They also weigh in on his bizarre social media Q&A, in which Mr Burnham reveals his controversial tea-making habits, and ask whether Burnhamism is nothing more than “high vibes” and “low detail”.
