MP Esther McVey scorched Prime Minister Andy Burnham's PMQs (Prime Minister's Questions) performance after his first two sessions. There was no scheduled PMQs on Wednesday, 16 September 2026, as Parliament entered into recess for the autumn party conferences.
'There will be no PMQs today, for which Andy Burnham must be relieved and the nation should be grateful,' McVey shared on social media. 'He's a dud at the despatch box. His last two performances have been a car crash and caused gaffes that required immediate corrections and clarifications from Number 10.'
