Legal Cases and Extreme Weather Warnings

Sakir Stamma says he'll be replaced as Prime Minister by September at the latest after announcing his resignation as Labour Leader today. In a speech outside number ten, Sakir said it was clear he'd lost the support of his party. The former greater Manchester mayor, Undy Burnham has been sworn in as an MP. He says he'll put his name forward to replace Sakir Starmer. If he's unopposed, he'll be Prime Minister next month. Peter Princeley is the Labour MP for Berry St. Edmonds and Stowmarket and says Andy Burnham's policies are unknown. I'm a little bit sad about what's happened to Kirstarmo. I think he's a thoroughly decent man . It's obvious that he has lost the support of the people to some extent, which was what we saw in the local elections. You know, what I would say about Andy is that he's unknown to most of us in the Parliamentary Labour Party who are new. The Conservative leader Kemi Badenok says Sakir's Starmar's replacement must focus on increasing defense spending. The Liberal Democrats say the public are tired of a merry go round of prime ministers. The leader of reform UK Nigel Farrosh is called for an immediate general elect ion. Whoever becomes the Prime Minister will not have been voted for by the British public . And if the next Prime Minister is the new MP for Makerfield, Andy Burnham, he didn't even stand at the last election on any manifesto at all. And I really do think, I really do think that my call for there to be a general election as soon as is possible, I think you'll find a lot of support for that.

Donaldson has been told to expect a lengthy jail term when he's sentenced in September. He's been remanded in custody.

The tribunal ruled there was no justification for refusing the test.

It's only the second time that the Met Office has issued such a warning .
