Zia Yusuf demanded a general election because (almost) no-one voted for Andy Burnham and it was a gratuitous self-own visible from space

Reform UK’s cosplay shadow Home Secretary Zia Yusuf wants a general election. And when does he want a general election?

Well, ideally before Nigel Farage gives it all up in a huff again. AKA NOW!

0.03% of the British people voted for Burnham.

He has no mandate for anything in his speech today.

WE NEED A GENERAL ELECTION NOW!

Well, that is true Andy Burnham was only elected by a single constituency of people but then that’s always been the way with the British political system (unless the PM sits in the House of Lords).

But anyway, that’s not the point. Well, it is, but this really is the point, Yusuf being swallowed up in a giant self-own visible from space (advisory note – strong language ahoy).

I know you've never stood for any election so I understand why you're confused.
No prime minister in our history has ever been directly elected by the public.

0.00% of the British people have voted for you to do anything

And you can’t even get selected as a candidate in your own party…

And no one has voted for you, nor will they since Reform don’t want you to stand for election. https://t.co/fpCw9kYtRZ

Strange, your party was happy to take defectors and not have by-elections and you yourself aren't elected to anything yet you complain when Labour are doing exactly what is allowed under our current rules.

Suck it up cupcake.
