In this video we explore Burnham’s promise to implement a more representative electoral system in the UK but will he actually succeed where countless other governments have failed – and actually change the voting system?

Nigel Farage said Andy Burnham’s comments about potentially rejoining the EU had given him “the biggest boost in [his] career”. We look at why — even if it seems counter-intuitive — another Brexit debate could actually hurt Farage.

Before the Brexit referendum, a whole bunch of MPs explained to Britain how the economy would collapse post-Brexit. While Brexit hasn’t yet happened, some did say that the destruction would take place immediately after the vote; which didn’t exactly happen as expected. So in this video, we explain what’s happened and why the economy hasn’t done too badly in the end.

PLEASE NOTE: We're really sorry that due to an edit error, audio only comes out of the left channel. That means if you're listening using headphones you'll need to ensure that your left headphone is in. Unfortunately it's not possible for us to re-upload as our internet connection is horrendous and it would take about 90 minutes. We are working on sorting internet issues out, but that's a whole big exciting story we will be sharing in the next week or so…

I like pointing fun at him, as he's a good laugh. I do feel that he might be one of the greatest statesman of our Generation though. I think he will really shake up the economy, in a good way. He holds himself to a different standard of historical leaders, his own ego would force him to be a strong leader.

As much as I dislike Boris, he's still better than Trump, if only just. At least he can successfully string together a coherent sentence.

Kind of hard to keep watching him brag about how well the tories have 'shared'. Seriously, out of all the parties I'd say the Tory party is has the worse track record for human rights and actually caring about the poor, the disabled and minority groups.

This is like watching Horror Film unfolding, in the UK the Government persecute the Disabled, are running our Health System into the ground. We now have no Human Rights in the UK, and the Government are taking full advantage of that. We already have poison GMO's in our stores and Chlorinated Chicken… What's next? And now that imbecile, a Child of a Man in power, yet again we have a PM the Country did not vote for… God only knows what's coming next

I couldn’t get enough of this Brexit show in the first couple seasons. The night they aired the referendum result I was on the edge of my seat. The ‘17 general election too.
But now the plot is just so stale and repetitive. I mean, three votes on the same withdrawal agreement? That really strained credibility. They did the TIG/Change UK storyline, then dropped it almost immediately, completely wasting likable characters like Chuka Umunna and Anna Soubry.
I guess having Theresa May resign was meant as a shake-up to the plot, but they’d already teased it last season with the no-confidence votes, so it really lost its oomph. And then they went with the boringly predictable route of making Boris Johnson prime minister (and had him deliver downright pathetic lines like “I say to the doubters, ‘Dude! . . . ‘“) They never even hinted that there was any possibility of him not getting the job. They came up with that cool dark horse character, Rory Stewart, then wrote him out right away. If I’d been writing the script, I’d have made Stewart the other finalist in the leadership contest. The Jeremy Hunt character never connected with the fans.
Then they ran that Lib Dem leadership subplot at the exact same time. Who cares? And it was so boring, the way the two candidates agreed on everything and had barely any personality between them.
The Nigel Farage character was a magnificent villain back when the show started, and when they reintroduced him for the European elections episode, it was a great “Oh shit!” moment. But they haven’t really done anything interesting with him, they just have him say rude things in the European Parliament. The shock value of his obnoxiousness is fast wearing thin, and making it obvious that he’s got no substance.
The whole thing is really starting to remind me of Downton Abbey at the end of its run. It seems this show is just wedded to the status quo. They’re never going to leave the European Union, and they’re never going to call the whole thing off either. They just want to keep the story in a holding pattern in the hopes they’ll be picked up for more and more seasons. If they ever do have a proper conclusion, it will be so unearned, just coming out of nowhere.

Boris Johnson always sounds like he's talking tongue-in-cheek and lacking true sincerity. Today a nightmare has come true – Trump and Johnson are leading their respective nations. I am deeply worried for Britain and her future.
