Is blocking Burnham the best path to PR?
With Andy Burnham walking back a lot of his more left-leaning policies, and falling closer in line with Starmer-ism, does it make sense to push a heavy campaign in the seat? There are already 60 Labour MPs calling for PR, would Labour see this defeat (either to Greens, or to Reform on a split center / left vote), as an even greater reason to call for proportional representation?
