Greater Manchester mayor Andy Burnham says he will not call for a general election, but argues for changes to how people vote. In a Reddit “Ask Me Anything” session, the Makerfield MP—described by both outlets as being widely regarded as a likely future prime minister—said he does not think a general election should be triggered at this time. Instead, he focuses on proposals for voting reform, arguing that the political system needs to be adjusted to improve how elections work. The outlets report the remarks as part of his public Q&A, with no additional policy details included in the provided articles. Both sources present the same core points: Burnham rejects the idea of holding a general election now and emphasizes his preference for election and voting-system changes rather than an immediate national contest. The reports do not specify a timeline, particular reform mechanism, or how his proposals would be implemented.
