Andy Burnham has confirmed he is officially seeking permission to enter the running to become MP for Gorton and Denton in the upcoming by-election, opening the possibility for him to contest Keir Starmer’s leadership.

Laura and Paddy are joined by Gemma Bolton from the committee to discuss why some other members think he should be allowed.
