UK Labour faces key electoral test in Makefield by-election

A by-election in Makefield could shape Britain's political future, with Labour's Andy Burnham, the Mayor of Greater Manchester, standing after the local MP resigned to clear the way for him. Many in the party see this as Burnham's path to Parliament and a potential challenge to Keir Starmer's leadership. However, local voters remain divided, and Reform UK's Robert Kenyon, a plumber and former army reservist, is mounting a strong challenge in a seat Labour has held since 1906.
