Stuart Norval is pleased to welcome Matthew Torbitt, former Labour Party advisor, political commentator, and anti-homelessness campaigner.
With only weeks to prepare for a long-term 10-year programme for government, Burnham appears to be prioritising measures that demonstrate immediate responsiveness to economic insecurity.
For Torbitt, this reflects a politics of “deliverism” rooted in Burnham’s ability to communicate empathy and urgency.
His appeal rests partly on an image of ordinariness, relatability and trustworthiness: a PM who appears to understand everyday hardship and who can translate that understanding into tangible action.
