@DPJHodges We do really need a transition period. Even something like a week where you can go make the cabinet announcements and everyone is ready to go on day one.

Logjam inside No.10 underlines what I wrote yesterday. There are clearly ongoing issues with basic political management. Not a deal breaker at the moment. Will no doubt be ironed out moving forward. But further evidence of the fact this transition has come too soon.

@therainking_ @Petrie_JohnC Regardless of your views on him, the guy is clearly an intelligent guy.

@Petrie_JohnC Trust me, he’s our MP. It’s a definite improvement. All Jones cares about is his profile

Darren Jones replaced by Louise Haigh. That is quite a downgrade.

@SebastianEPayne Previous reshuffles have taken place over a few days.

Reshuffles don’t normally take this long

@acailler Its obviously his daughter

Who is this man outside Downing Street and why is he using this girl as a glasses-cleaning cloth...?

@MrHarryCole Likely Andy's team requested it. The morons we had in charge previously probably did not realise it could be banned if requested.

Why didn’t this happen for previous PMs?

@aseitzwald Utterly bizarre she decided to run again. Everyone knew Troy was 99% likely to win.

@christopherhope It was widely reported when Healey resigned that the treasury were blocking the increases.

💥Will Rachel Reeves be Andy Burnham's surprise appointment as Defence secretary tomorrow? Here is my reasoning: - the role of Defence secretary is increasingly about spending public money efficiently and not wasting it; - she can lobby for/find savings for the £5billion black hole in the Defence Investment Plan; - Reeves briefed journalists on the DIP when they went to the Nato summit in Ankara with Sir Keir Starmer; - Reeves was at the unveiling of the DIP with Starmer and defence secretary Dan Jarvis; - Defence secretary would be seen as an appropriate role for a former Chancellor to rebuild her reputation. We will know soon enough tomorrow. More news and coverage now on @GBNEWS.

@scottygb Its a poorly crafted ad. No rhythm to it.

BBC has released a new campaign 'What has the BBC ever done for me?' It will air during tonight's World Cup final coverage.

@GemInvestor_SOL @eightgalaxies @GBPolitcs You are a moron. That oil in the North Sea does not belong to the British people/goverment. What part of it being fully privatised do you not understand?

@eightgalaxies @GBPolitcs You are dumb. If we have nationalised drilling, it will stop supply issues, allow us to make our own prices. The international market is for import/export… you don’t have to pay a premium for your own oil you just produced! It will help us in the long run without a doubt

🚨BREAKING: Andy Burnham is set to announce plans for new North Sea oil and gas drilling when he becomes Prime Minister on Monday, breaking Labour's 2024 manifesto on his first day

The NFL is suspending #Cardinals personnel executive Ryan Gold after he placed a $25 dollar wager parlaying the result of the team’s first 5 draft picks, which included Carson Beck. He was paid out $732,500 in winnings.

@Steven_Swinford This is just a blatant lie by Andy. The notion he has not chosen his senior cabinet team 72 hours before he becomes PM is just incredulous.

Andy Burnham says he wants to end the 'insidious briefing culture' and 'move beyond' factionalism 'I will work relentlessly to build a culture of one Labour team. Change starts with us. We won't beat Britain's new right if we are consumed by infighting and pulling in different directions. 'Fighting to eradicate it and the insidious briefing culture that goes with it will characterise my leadership. In future when a Burnhamite walks into a bar I want the barman to say great to see you. We don't like factional politics in here' He insists he has not made any decisions about who will be in his top team. 'When I have you will see it reflects all parts of our party. All communities'

@PolitlcsUK The guy is a known social media troll.

🚨 WATCH: Police rescue an Argentina fan in London after he was surrounded by England fans

@faisalislam Sole Traders do not need to register for Companies House.

This is a very interesting observation on the UK from a significant Silicon Valley tech CEO… There’s the specific issue about the accuracy of stats… in this case potentially understating some better economic news There’s a more general separate issue in economics about the timeliness of official economic numbers compared with the real time mountain of rich data being processed by tech companies. Worth a read.

@clashreport Not a good sign when the governor also sounds like he is on his deathbed.

South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster appointed Darline Graham Nordone, Sen. Lindsey Graham's sister, to temporarily fill his U.S. Senate seat after Graham's sudden death.

@funkomi What makes it worse is you cannot even open them fully (due to Health and Safety nonsense)

Glad they are building but what is actually the problem with the tiny windows on newbuilds in the UK. I don’t get it??

@JAllen_NYC His team in recent days have also been boasting about his 2028 prospects. Just moronic and these blunders are going to cost him the senate seat.

Wow El-Sayed stepped in it. He just defended his defund comments. You can try to mince it anyway you like but he just gave Stevens and Rogers a soundbite.

@bettingvillage He is only doing this so that India and China can take part.

Ah yes lets have more games and more dross in the tournament 😭 Might as well let every country in and have one big knockout at this rate 😴

@archer_rs The reason its popular among the scum is you can easily conceal a knife/machete in them.

Is somebody in the UK handing out these same ugly, shiny, cheap coats to every scallywag in Britain ?

@DavidVance Most deaths in the UK are done by someone the victim personally knew.

So an individual travels 280 miles from South Yorkshire to allegedly kill a senior Reform politician but it’s not political? Ok, what is it, then?

@benjaminbutter Lets stop this blame game bullshit. Only person responsible is the scumbag who murdered her.

This raises serious questions for Cloud 9 management. Channel 5 says that it contacted her agent on Wednesday lunchtime after Ann was unreachable. But she was not discovered until Thursday lunchtime when a carer visited the property. Did her agent check on her after being warned? And if so, why did they not alert police when she was uncontactable?
