However here is why I am not and urge people to NOT vote for Andy Burnham:
- He's apparently pro gay marriage, but was absent for 2002 gay adoption vote
- He is against IVF for lesbian couples, because he believes all children need a 'father figure' and a male and a female role model (seriously Andy, it's 2015, stop spouting middle age rubbish! Take a look at this post I wrote a while back on lesbian parents...)
- He is a strong Catholic (the only one of the four Labour candidates to have religious faith, whilst there is nothing wrong with that it is clear that he lets his religious beliefs affect moral and equality beliefs)
If the above doesn't make him sound like he is perhaps in the WRONG party and should slide more to the right and maybe join the Tories on their train to Destination Capitalist Bullshit then I don't know what does!
