He's only just been voted back in as mayor, plus like he said, he's not currently an MP and has missed out on the job twice before. I think he'd probably be alright at it, but should carry on doing an alright job up here and building a decent reputation then go for it in the future before an election if needed.
I think replacing Starmer with Burnham would be a good start for a Labour rebuild. He's popular, people have heard of him, and doesn't come across as a fully paid-up member of the Westminster village.
