This goes to my theory about people preferring politicians who look like they enjoy the job. There’s no one way of showing that (Thatcher enjoying it clearly different to Burnham) but Burnham does and it’s hard to imagine Starmer responding like this. https://t.co/LVMwPIhmg1

He utterly destroys Kemi here, imagine if Andy Burnham took on Trump or Elon on this platform. https://t.co/srazP2D2Wu

Seeing a lot of abuse for this, but it's good to see a different type of PR style to Starmer who was a complete robot.
Nothing wrong with our politicians showing personality.

I’m going to do this just once and we all know he will need to be judged on far bigger and more urgent skills….some that there are mighty doubts he has.
….but he HAS social media ‘game’ – and Starmer doing this? And the “naughty boy” quip….Not even as a backbencher, never. https://t.co/F3MdXnnIez
