Guitar-slinging Burnham is hitting the wrong notes politically | The Daily T podcast

In Wednesday’s episode of The Daily T, Camilla Tominey and Rachel Johnson discuss the optics of Andy Burnham while out of the country, the backlash against a Labour MP following a fatal crash in Middlesbrough, and the legacy of Dolly Parton.

Camilla and Rachel question Andy Burnham’s statecraft after footage emerged of him playing a guitar during a visit to Ukraine, alongside reports of pushing to increase foreign aid spending despite domestic financial pressures.

Plus, is the outrage to Labour MP Anna Turley’s social media post justified? She paid tribute to all seven individuals killed in a high-speed collision that claimed the lives of two police officers alongside five joyriders with extensive criminal records.

And Camilla and Rachel pay homage to the late country music icon Dolly Parton, highlighting her literary charity work, global appeal and quiet philanthropy.
