Burnham’s used a recommitment of investment in updating the Trident nuclear submarine programme to repeat his promise of reindustrialising Britain.

If Burnham just said he would instantly detain and deport every illegal migrant who arrives in my country, I would vote for him yesterday. The other stuff, we can chat about…
Believe this imposter at your peril.
You have to be a moron to get rid of a nuclear deterrent in this geopolitical environment…military manufacturing can juice up the economy as well…
🔥🔥🔥 One Warmonger to another.
This just proves that our government is controlled by the military industrial complex.
No amount of government reshuffle will change that.
Money well spent!! 👏👏👏
What did Jeremy Corbyn say about a nuclear submarine deterrent an utter waste of tax payers money, Jeremy you are absolutely 💯.
That apprentice figure sounds high. Is there a breakdown??
