Trump brands Burnham 'extremely liberal' amid UK leadership race
Donald Trump weighed in on UK politics, calling Andy Burnham “extremely liberal” and “the mayor of a town” as Burnham contemplates becoming Labour’s next leader. Burnham’s team declined to comment. Trump’s remarks touch on energy policy implications, suggesting Burnham would be unlikely to open the North Sea to more oil and gas drilling, as the UK navigates energy security ahead of major international summits.
