@longwordmonthly.bsky.socialWhat happened to Labour’s number one priority of growing the economy? One hour into the speech and not a word.
#LabourPartyConference
@jonniegrieve.bsky.social@jonniegrieve.bsky.socialI'm a little heartened to hear about plans for Welfare Reform. "No crude cuts". Connecting the education system to business and employment services. Sounds good.
But I'm still worried about the Timms review and plans for disability welfare. #LabourPartyConference
@jonniegrieve.bsky.socialWe can at least say we know 2 things Burnham is about. Deprivatisation and social care. #LabourPartyConference
@hearmeplaypiano.bsky.socialWow. That National Care Service bit seemed to make him a bit teary. He really is a brilliant public speaker. #Burnham #AndyBurnham #Labour #LabourPartyConference
@iainphilpott.bsky.socialMy God, #Burnham right now is making me proud to be British!
@iainphilpott.bsky.socialNot going to lie, there is not a single thing #Burnham has said so far that I disagree with. He is smashing this!
@jonniegrieve.bsky.socialOne thing I do like.... Burnham seems to be reclaiming the phrase "Take Back Control". #LabourPartyConference
@hearmeplaypiano.bsky.socialGod, #AndyBurnham is talking so much sense. I’m willing myself not to get too excited because I’m just so used to Prime Ministers being wankers and/or letting us down. Please, @andyburnham.bsky.social “hope again” is bloody right. #labourpartyconference #labour
@longwordmonthly.bsky.socialA bit rich for Burnham to say that we (Labour Party) rescued the country and rebuilt Britain after the war.
Atlee's government fell in 1951, the country still with rationing, and a weary public desperate for hope.
Labour spent the next 13 yrs in opposition. #LabourPartyConference #wato #bbcpm
@jonniegrieve.bsky.socialI can't help it, you know. I like the guy*.
But is it enough to make us wait until we feel hope?
@longwordmonthly.bsky.socialThe irony of Burnham saying "thank you Keir", alongside the change slogan of "Hope again" will not be lost on the country.
@longwordmonthly.bsky.social"People with ringtones again."

@smitfcharity.bsky.socialOur CEO Duncan Shrubsole shares some reflections from The #LabourPartyConference, including what needs to happen to end #RoughSleeping and why frontline workers must be at the heart of that work.
We look forward to working with the Government to make this happen.
@cnduk.bsky.socialMushroom cloud rises over Liverpool as protesters call on Burnham to stop driving nuclear risks and focus on the real security threats we face, from climate chaos and the cost-of-living crisis. #LabourPartyConference
