Polanski turns on Burnham for failing to take on big landlords

Polanski turns on Burnham for failing to take on big landlords

He dismissed Labour's record as slogans without action and half-measure legislation, his sharpest attack on Burnham yet. Green poll ratings have kept slipping since Burnham took office and tried to win back left-wing voters.
