Former Scottish first minister Nicola Sturgeon has said she finds it hard to see how Prime Minister Andy Burnham can avoid an early general election. Speaking on the BBC's Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg, she said he has plenty of goodwill but almost no money and no mandate for big reforms. Burnham ruled out an early election last week. Sturgeon said she wants him to succeed.
