Trump labels Burnham 'extremely liberal' as UK Labour leadership heats up

President Donald Trump said he knows little about Andy Burnham, calling him 'extremely liberal' and suggesting Burnham would likely oppose opening Britain’s North Sea to more oil drilling. He also reiterated that Keir Starmer should have opened the North Sea, noting Starmer’s resignation amid weak poll numbers, while Burnham remains the Labour leadership’s sole declared contender who could be appointed by mid-July.
