A decade spent outside Westminster has made Andy a different politician. In my view, a better one. If politics is ultimately about understanding people’s lives and working to improve them, I think he’s more prepared for that challenge than ever before. independent.co.uk/voices/ste…

Andy Burnham and I failed to make him Labour leader once. This is why he’s ready now

Burnham’s decade outside Westminster has broadened his perspective and made him a better politician, writes his now-former fellow metro mayor, Steve Rotheram

Andy Burnham saying there is 'something wrong' with football fans not being able to drink in the same seat that a rugby league fan can, and saying 'we need to look at that', might be the biggest unifying political statement of this or any generation 🤣🍻👏 x.com/i/status/2073480534366…

Rugby league deserves more. As a former President of the RFL, I’ll be a staunch advocate for the game in whatever office I hold.

John, your column asks readers to believe you can divine what was going on inside Andy Burnham's mind. That is opinion masquerading as analysis. Critique what he actually said by all means, but questioning his sincerity without compelling evidence says more about modern political commentary than it does about him.
