Great exclusive from @issyjourno, who spoke with London bus drivers about dangerous temperatures in their cabs - plus some great lines from @JosephDraper5 who spoke with the @MayorofLondon on 'unacceptable' working conditions lbc.co.uk/article/sadiq-…

Key backbench Labour MPs have vowed to put up the “strongest fight possible” against welfare cuts to fund defence - as a string of resignations heaped pressure on the PM to find more cash for rearmament. For @LBC @AndrewMarr9 lbc.co.uk/article/labour…

John Healey has given this country serious service in a serious time. He took on the Ministry of Defence at a moment when the world was getting more dangerous, not less, and he carried that weight with the discipline and decency that the job demands. I worked alongside him closely. I saw the hours, the care, and the seriousness he brought to every brief, including the hardest ones. There are issues facing this Department that do not lend themselves to easy answers. The work on funding, on veterans, on Legacy, on the welfare of those who serve. The threats facing this country have not paused for a change of Secretary of State. Our Armed Forces remain on operations around the world, standing with our allies, protecting our interests, and keeping the British people safe. They deserve a Ministry of Defence that matches their seriousness with our own. That is the job. It continues today.

NEW: Defence Select Committee chair and Labour MP @TanDhesi on the resignation of Defence Secretary @JohnHealey_MP @LBC @LBCNews

My letter to the Prime Minister

Wes Streeting is one of the Labour leadership favourites - but he could lose his own seat in a general election. For @LBC, we asked some of his constituents in Ilford North whether he should run for leader. The response was lukewarm.

EXCLUSIVE: Al Carns WILL join the race to become PM if there is a contest. A parliamentary source told @thetimes "Al Carns has said ‘he is getting on with doing his job, but if someone fires the starting gun, he isn’t afraid of gunfire’." They said the implication was Carns "would throw his hat in the ring should someone trigger a race"

NEW: Zoë Garbett makes history here in Hackney as the Green Party’s first ever elected mayor. In her speech Zoë says this is where the fight back begins @LBC @LBCNews

Teenaged maniac Marwan Khadir pulled a fake handgun on a chicken shop worker before threatening to kill him on Christmas Eve... over some missing garlic sauce. @josephdraper5 goes through it:

NEW: Nigel Farage confirms Simon Dudley is no longer housing spokesperson for Reform after his comments about Grenfell. Describes his comments as deeply inappropriate and frankly shocking.

“We know this regime has terror cells operating across Europe.” Following several arrests in London, @JosephDraper5 raises concerns about 'Iranian influence' in the UK and how the ongoing war in the Gulf could ‘impact our security’.

@claireindubai Hi Claire, I’m a reporter in the UK. I’ve just sent you a DM

Dog dumping has started. We have 50! Split over 2 villas, boarding and a few in foster. This is absolutely unsustainable. Vets are reporting that they're getting 100s of calls about putting pets to sleep. 😭

Exclusive for @LBC and @LBCNews Government could make decision on more defence spending ‘within weeks’ alongside Defence Investment Plan. Multiple sources say they’re expecting additional funding, as Gov warned armed forces are running out of cash. lbc.co.uk/article/govern…
