Andy Burnham, Greater Manchester mayor, criticized Labour's campaign approach as "bankrupt" following the party's loss of the previously safe Gorton and Denton seat, saying it prevents connection with non-Labour voters and reflects a wider chasm between Westminster and the public. Burnham, regarded as a potential rival to Keir Starmer, called for reform of the political system and outlined his vision of "Manchesterism" as an alternative to what he termed "Westminsterism."
