Burnham's rebuke follows Sir Tony's warning that Labour is “playing with fire” by moving left and should instead occupy the “radical centre”. The Greater Manchester Mayor argued that Sir Tony fails to acknowledge how inequality drives current politics and that centrists have failed voters, leading to the abandonment of the centre. Mr Burnham also attacked Sir Tony's “obsession” with universities, advocating for a greater focus on technical education. In his essay, Sir Tony warned Labour risks long-term damage to the party and country, lacking a coherent plan, and stated the UK is currently too weak to discuss rejoining the European Union.
