Andy Burnham today repeated his denial to reporters that he was not embarrassed by the message exchange with someone purporting to be the chief of staff for US President Donald Trump.
'I repeat that I am not embarrassed by the exchange of messages with a person purporting to be US President Donald Trump's chief of staff,' stated the Prime Minister.

'Excuse me,' said the Prime Minister, 'I have to take this. Ah, Lord Lucan! Thank you for calling me back, it's good to hear from you again.'
