US President Donald Trump described Andy Burnham, a British Labour Party politician expected to be the next prime minister, as 'extremely liberal' and 'mayor of a town'. Burnham was mayor of Greater Manchester for nine years and is now an MP. Trump criticized Burnham's potential opposition to opening the North Sea for oil drilling, which he previously advised Keir Starmer to do.
