  1. Surely in these prison's there are people with petty convictions they can release instead of murderers and suchlike

  2. Waffle waffle more waffle. He hasn’t got any plan. Stands there what is your plan Burnham!!! Sound bites, likes to think he is in tune with the public but looking at him he has no idea how to sort out this country. It’s a load of rubbish…for gods sake we need a General Election…

  3. I start to lose faith in Andy's integrity when he effectively selectively blocks the early release of 2 stupid young men who were passengers not the real perpertrator. Sometimes a leader should state his case and go for it otherwise he will become a populist. Honeymoon for now but we need more than tinkering.

  4. & barbers, chicken cottages & nail bars.

    Burnham is letting the country burn.

    Action, not words. Leadership in any direction now. Left or right, I don't care, anywhere but down.

  5. He is the PM with a party that has a majority if he really wanted to he could put forward emergency legislation he just doesn’t really care and would rather try to talk his way through the situation rather then actually doing something about it
