“This is a political economy built around place first, not Whitehall first.” Instant reaction on @bbc5live to @andyburnhamHQ speech with @TVNaga01 and @jryancollins. His central argument: Britain’s over-centralised model is holding back growth, and a more place-led economy could be the key to unlocking it. 🎙️ Listen back below.

“The UK is an extraordinarily centralised country . . . where we’ve given mayors real powers, they’ve made a positive difference to their area” Discussing the papers on @TimesRadio with @CalumAM @writtenbysalma and @GillianKeegan The success of metro mayors has shown what happens when government trusts local leaders. @andyburnham plans to be even bolder on devolution.

“The number of people who actually know is minuscule.” Westminster loves a reshuffle rumour. After 15 years involved in Labour reshuffles, one thing never changed: however confident the speculation, the reality is that very few people know the final decisions, they’re definitely not letting anything slip and even they know the list can change at the last moment. Enjoyed sharing some behind-the-scenes reflections with @MattChorley on @bbc5live with @LuciaBHodgson and @Sean_Kemp

🗣️ “And Andy Burnham cannot meet every member of the British public. What he has got is that magic of being able to do it and connect through the medium of the day, which is short form video on social media platforms”. On a massive week in British politics I joined @MattChorley for spin class with @LuciaBHodgson and @Sean_Kemp. How do you know when the power's gone? Why does Farage say it's none of your business? Is Andy Burnham smashing the socials? 🎧 lnkd.in/eJTPU6hS

“It really is the last chance saloon for Labour to show that it can govern and improve people’s lives.” My take for @abcnews on Sir Keir Starmer’s resignation, why Labour MPs forced the change, and what Andy Burnham now inherits. A fresh face offers a reset. But the structural challenges facing Britain haven’t changed. The stakes could hardly be higher.

“If you’re a voter, politics hasn’t trodden more lightly on people’s lives. They are tired of the constant churn.” The deeper story behind today’s resignation is not personalities. It’s a crisis of delivery, trust and living standards. Good to join @CBCNews and @aartipole

“Labour MPs judged they were facing electoral oblivion if Keir Starmer remained Prime Minister.” I joined @BBCNews to discuss Sir Keir Starmer’s resignation, why MPs concluded a change was necessary, and the challenge now facing Andy Burnham.

Keir Starmer has always put country first He inherited a Party after its worst defeat in a century, rebuilt it, & delivered a historic election victory That is why I believe he will now do what he has always done: put the national interest first & ensure an orderly transition

“There is a real danger here now that the country is in paralysis.” The stakes are incredibly high for the country. The PM should provide certainty, and announce ensure a smooth transition of power so government can focus on leading again. 🎙️@bbc5live

On @BBCBreakfast 🗣️ “I do think the country owes Keir Starmer a huge debt of gratitude . . . but in the very very early part of next week Keir Starmer should decide to set out a timetable for him to transfer power to the next Labour leader who can then be prime minister.”

On @TimesRadio with @adamboultonTABB The options facing Keir Starmer "are now few and far between”, says his former political director Luke Sullivan. "This result, the scale of it, has changed all possible paths for survival for the prime minister."
