Forget Andy Burnham's fancy words, and tiny measures on energy & buses. Follow the money. ££££.
The big money is for war. In the next decade, #Burnham, #Healey & #Streeting are pouring over £100 billion extra into weapons. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jul/22/increased-defence-spending-uk-economic-growth-wes-streeting-military-andy-burnham
This money is not for "#defence".
There is no defensive use for destroyers or nuclear submarines or aircraft carriers. These are weapons of attack.
Money that should be invested in people and in infrastructure is being squandered on war.
