Burnham To Bring Back Rationing

As the never ending Labour leadership contest lurches from absurdity to absurdity, Andy Burnham is trying to out do Corbyn in taking Labour even further back in time than the early 80's.

Today Burnham will make a speech entitled "Recapturing The Spirit of '45", in a bid to recapture the spirit of Clement Attlee’s Government, and slam the modern Labour Party for being “too frightened by its own shadow”.

As such, he intends to bring back rationing and national service.
