About a day on since Andy Burnham took over and a new government being formed. There’s a few interesting choices in the cabinet, some really good, some not as much. Overall, it’s clear that this was a clear out judging by who stayed and who didn’t, but early days, so here’s hoping it all goes well🤞.

After confirming he will be visiting the King to officially resign as Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer said: “My work is done. In six and a half years, I took our party from a historic defeat in 2019 and won a landslide general election victory in 2024. trib.al/tbIX6b8

All this talk about who the next Chancellor is going to be, and everybody is overlooking Yvette Cooper. She has a Masters in Economics, she has experience in the Treasury, on top of the fact that she would keep the markets and the unions happy. In my opinion, she is the best candidate for the job.

There’s a chance for something funny to happen here. If the mainstream parties don’t stand, they can make Farage look like an idiot. If he wins, the parliamentary investigation still carries on afterwards and could result in another by-election.
