In this video, we dive into Labour MP Andrew Gwynne's decision to step down, triggering a parliamentary by-election in Manchester that's sparking major speculation. Many view it as a golden opportunity for Greater Manchester Mayor Andy Burnham to run, win the seat, and launch a leadership challenge against Keir Starmer. However, Starmer is reportedly plotting to block Burnham by enforcing new party rules that force mayors to resign their positions before being selected as candidates for other elections, turning it into a high-stakes gamble for Burnham. We also break down the recent cancelled elections, which Reform UK interprets as a blatant tactic by Tories and Labour to prevent Reform from gaining more seats, allowing the established parties to cling to power and maintain their dominance.
