Makerfield byelection could determine future of UK government

ai generated text
In a high‑stakes by‑election in the Makerfield constituency, Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham is vying to win a seat that could launch him to the premiership. He faces a stiff challenge from Reform UK and must secure support amid a politically charged campaign.
But the comments he made about abortion will damage him most with women.
With some voters, Kenyon might get away with some sexist stuff.
If Burnham does win, his path to 10 Downing Street looks to be relatively assured. If they deny him the opportunity, it may be that Starmer will survive, at least for the time being.
Almost undoubtedly it's in the hands of the voters of Makerfield as to whether or not Burnham becomes prime minister.
