🇬🇧‼️🚨 BREAKING: A SCOT WENT ON AN ANTI MUSLIM RAMPAGE WITH AN AXE! The Scot: "I'm protecting the country from these fucking Muslim bastards raping our young daughters!" 5 people were injured, the Police said none of the injuries seem to be life-threatening. Two of the injured men were aged 22, and others were aged 24, 27, and 39. BBC UNDERLINES RACE: “A 36-year-old white man has been arrested and counter terrorism officers have joined local Police Scotland colleagues in an ongoing investigation. “

I am told that the PM has not yet definitively decided that he will announce his departure. “It is looking that way,” says a source, “but it is not 100%.” The prediction, among Keir Starmer’s close colleagues, is that he will decide to stay in post until just before Labour conference in late September. “In those circumstances of a delayed exit, history will probably be kinder to him,” said a colleague. “But of course we understand the instinct just to have done with it and walk away.” As for the timing of any such announcement, that could still be Tuesday rather than Monday. On whether there should be a formal leadership contest or an uncontested coronation of Andy Burnham, I am told the mood of MPs is polarised, but the majority would prefer “the men and women in grey suits” to fix it for Burnham, without a potentially fractious completion. Apart from anything else, even close friends of Burnham say he is not yet ready to govern. “He definitely needs time to work out his team and programme,” says an ally of his. So Starmer would be doing Burnham a favour by staying in post another three months - though he would do Burnham a favour through gritted teeth that would risk them falling out.
