inequality, rather than being incidental to the crises reshaping Western democracies is actually their cause.

It is vital to tip the balance of taxation away from work towards wealth.

And look, you know, West Street is MP for Ilford, just like if you want to meet up West Street with your team, I'm here, you know, Ilford boy born and bred, like,

this is amazing, right?

Like people on the right of the Labour Party, you know, are suddenly basically saying, in tax wealth, not work.

And, and the Burnham came out and his response was, you know, why have you not mentioned inequality, even Keir Starmer said, Why are you not talking about inequality.

And it just feels like all of a sudden, you know, there's this big

Westring even publicly proposed a wealth tax.

Okay, you look into the details, it wasn't the best wealth tax.

But like, there's this thing in like political messaging, which is like when your political opponents start to adopt your political messaging, that means you have one.

And you basically see this with some of what Farage and Reform and Brexit Party do on immigration, which is they win, you know, the Labour Party adopts their their framing.

All of our political opponents, you know, in the centre who have been so reluctant for so long are wholesale adopting our political framing.

And I hope that they are serious.

And I just want to let them know, you know, Burnham, Streeting, Rayner, Ed, even Keir, if you still want to stick around.

If you are serious about fixing inequality, I'm here and I'll help you stay in power.

All right, so what are the risks?

Listen, I'm going to be very straight about the Mayfield by-election.

If you're on Mayfield, I think you should vote for Labour.

And I think you should vote for Andy Burnham.

And, you know, as I've always said, I'm not a member of any party.
