IS BURNHAM PLOTTING A SNEAKY GENERAL ELECTION BEFORE CHRISTMAS?

Is Andy Burnham preparing to spring a surprise General Election on Britain before Christmas? Today's reports suggest his government wants to rush through major changes to Britain's voting system, including votes at 16 and allowing people to vote using bank cards instead of photographic identification.

There are also reports of attempts to shorten parliamentary scrutiny.

I want a General Election. I've been demanding one. But I also want to know exactly what rules will govern it, why they are being changed and why the apparent rush. Burnham became Prime Minister without winning a General Election as Labour leader. Now the question is whether he intends to seek a personal mandate before Christmas — and whether these electoral reforms could be in place first.

And what about Manchester City? The club has been found guilty of serious financial rule breaches and is appealing. Burnham's comments about the club's Abu Dhabi owners have already raised concerns among other Premier League clubs about possible political interference.

Tonight I'm asking whether this is a government trying to strengthen democracy or whether its critics are right to fear that the electoral rules are being changed for political advantage. Is there a Christmas election coming? Are the proposed voting changes fair? And how much scrutiny should Burnham face over his Manchester City connections?
