“And breaking news this morning, Andy Burnham, the Prime Minister rules out an early general election, claiming people don't want a backwards-looking squabble. Cabinet Office Minister Sally Jameson told us this. I don't think now is the time for a general election, and frankly, I don't think the British people would thank us.
