On identity cards – a controversy which he had a hand in developing during his time as a Home Office minister – he is utterly unrepentant. Suddenly, he launches on to the offensive. “I’m disappointed when I hear Ed Miliband… saying this illustrated our disconnection,” he says. “I really don’t agree with that at all, in fact.”
What’s interesting is the way he positions himself on the issue. “I speak for mainstream Labour. Not mainstream Labour members, necessarily, but the average Labour voter.” A curious distinction, but one he sticks to. “I still think if you asked the average mainstream Labour voter today if they supported ID cards they’d say ‘yes they do’.”
What a vile, loathsome, disgusting little creep.
Yo Longride,
Yeah I saw that bitch on Question Time,they all make me puke I had an uncontrollable urge to punch him in the face every time he opened his smug mouth…grrrrr!
It is a face that positively demands to be punched… repeatedly.
I simply cannot condone your comments about punching poor Mr Burnham repeatedly in the face. It is always better to hit smug slimy idiots in more painful places where the bruises don’t show.
He’s a thunderbirds puppet ,definately not human at all.
And that eyeliner !
Trash ,he’s the authoritarian little shit who wanted to ban smoking outdoors .
Yea, I wanna punch the little creep as well.
I look forward to reading comments on McNulty.
He seems to be keeping his head down.
‘What a vile, loathsome, disgusting little creep.’
How about a bit of balance? You shouldn’t only mention his good points.
Very strange. You’d think he’d keep his mouth shut about the whole ID cards thing. It’s not going to win him any points, is it?
Burnham won the extremely close competition to decide which of the five wankers in the leadership race I hate the most. Ed Balls was probably runner up.
Isn’t there someone out there that can put together one of those simple flash games, where we can punch or throw rotten fruit at Andy Burnham and his pals?
