After a weekend of considering his future, it's thought the Prime Minister iss on the brink of resigning could be a momentous day. Plus we're in the middle of an unbelievably hot sp for June as the UK braces for temperatures of up to thirty eight degrees Hello, you're listening to T Sheet, a ten minute podcast on the today's newews on Monday the twenty second of June. I'm Wilfred Frost. I'm Sophie Ridge. Also today, Donald Trump has threatened to restart the war with Iran, even as his vice president met officials in Switzerland for peace talks Obviously Andy Burnham won his by election late last week. Initially, the Prime Minister was defiant I'm not going anywhere Even if I do go somewhere, I'd stand again. as he'd had time to dwell on it, think about it over the weekend, the expectation is what this morning, Sophie The expectation is that he is going to We sign or that he will set out at least a timetable for going I'm going to caveat this pretty heavily because I actually honestly think that nobody actually knows, right? that If you talk to anyone in Westminster who says that they know, they're lying because I think that the number of people, as we record this right now at five hundred fifteen You know what's in Kisam's head? unbelievably small Possibly just his wife whichich I love. Exactly, right. He's kind of taken himself off like almost like kind of going into like a black box territory, like to cheheckers to with his family about things. The reason I say that that is the expectation is because It is very, very difficult to see any route now to survival for Kist Aamma. I think it's inevitable actually that he goes at some point. cabinets on Tuesday If he doesn't set out a tim tpe before then, I think we could expect to see some profile resignations. Andy Burnham says he's already got the number of MPs to trigger a leadership contest. He doesn't want to do that. He wants a coronation, if you like Yeah, that I think that's the firm expectation now. I think An B wants coronation, obviously. I think he also wants kissed arrm of the chance Tw go with his head held high as it were to be fair to Andy Burnham. I think therefore the follow up question that we all have is timetable will the Prime Minister then set out? and is it something that Hey. is weeks, not months and B involves the leadership Race or is as you say, a coronation. And I think you know the most The betting at the moment is that both sides, Bernam and Starmer want this to be a handover in September and that The keysaide burn him obbviously willll not want to challenge and just want to move ahead and that sort of depends on a few others like where streeting and the like. But I guess the betting at the moment is a smooth handover over a couple of months as opposed to a sort of fraught battle Yeah that brings with it a lot of uncertainty. So I know what teeam Berham want, right? So I know Those close to Berham himself, they want him to be ideally in power Second week of September ready to announce his team at conference and use that labour conference at the back end of September as a kind of launch partad for his leadership Harry over the summer to speak to people from the civil service, all that kind of thing. That's what the burning cap on What the Kid arar accounts wants. I have no idea, right? I don't think many people do. Maybe not even him until very recently as well, right? think that He's going to feel personal animosity towards Andy Burnham Is he going to want to fall in with this plan? I mean, I just don't know This comp be pick week It's going to be a big week. It'll be a big day. Tune in to Sky News live all day if you're not doing so already So Wh all this is going on Westminster, Swal Trump threaten to restart the war in Iran See He did with a very high profile posts on social that said Iran must immediately stop their highly paid proxies in Lebanon from causing trouble. If they don't, we'll hit Iran hard again as the Vice President, Jadie Vance was meeting with negotiators in Switzerland, so you couldn't really create a tougher environment for that with than a tweet a post like that. What I would say is that as we wake up this morning I think the takeaway would be Peace talks continued Dpite that desespite this quite high profile photo opportunity not going ahead yesterday U and Even you'd say some comments this morning are quite encouraging. The Iranian Foreign Minister Aragachi saying there'd been quote major progress to end the war in Lebanon. And then his post said more about what had been agreed, like sanctions being lifted and the blockade being lifted and details like that. I think this morning versus yesterday You'd say despite these unbelievable challenges around these peace talks They haven't been derailed yet We are certainly reminded of the challenges in the weeks and months ahead by you know, these contrasting tones coming of out of both sides over the matter of twenty four hours. The straight formers is open Well, it's not fully open I mean, by the way, the IEA says it'll take two months to get back to the sort of eighteen to twenty million barrels a day of oil products that come out of there. It looks from satellite images like ships are moving, but I think almost in the same way that they were quietly over the last couple of weeks Oil prices as a gauge are just back below eighty for Brent And the question, I think for our economy here is if it does reopen Where does oil settle in a month or two's time And a reminder, it started the year at sixty, it started the W seventy. It got up to one hundred and fifteen And we're basically at eighty. So is good outcome still a premium to what we started the year at or not, we'll see Temperatures could potentially reach thirty eight degrees, whichich let's be real, what the UK is absolutely not prepared for at all. The metet offffers have issued an Amber extxtreme heat warning, which is their way of saying that yeah, this could be derous. thirty eight is too hot, let's be honest. It's D deffinitely too hot. Okay, good. Yeah. I think we can agree with that. some these Temperatures around the world are pretty staggering. so we're expecting thirty eight degrees in London thirty five in Birmingham, thirty four in Cardiff, thirty one in Manchester. C. ust a very yeah, coolm breezy thirty one degrees. And he's come down for the heat. bring the sun creream. And also around the world as well, Do de Bordeux, that's forty one degrees. What's they going do to the wine? Well' heat good for wine? I don't know. I'm not sure All I will say on the warnings just after that terrible month we had last month during the heat wave Please be careful, next to open water um Just there was what over ten of those tragedies of people jumping in to cool off, even if they're strong swimmers. and it's the sudden change in body temperature that causes people to get into temperatures. So just please please be careful The train driver who died in an awful train crash near Bedford, where one hundred people were injured as well, has been named Sean Burton, he was sixty years old He was the driver and he was died after this collision between the two East Midlands railway trains bound for London and they crashed on Friday and the General seectary of the AleF Trade Dvers Union said that Seaan Burton loved public transport. He worked on buses and coaches before he became a train driver seven years ago. There's obviously an investigation into I' caed that crash. A couple of weeks ago, we hoped And our requests have been answered by the Wild Card Committee at Wimbledon. I don't know if that is the name of the committee. but Drum roll, please. Serena Williams Returns to Wimbledon. The Queen herself. Her Majesty Imagine just getting her as a wildcard opponent. Can you imagine? That's gonna set up a few interesting early matches, right? You know, I can be quite critical come to the World Cup in a second year It should always be merit based. I don't quite I don't like this third place can still kind of work their way through type structure But this wild card thing I'm fully into water for Wimbledood. because Goron Ivanzvich, I remember won it having been a World Cup, and annoyingly deeating Tim Hemman in the semifinals. But I think it's great. It's great, partarticularly like, you know, everyone wants to see Serena Williams at Wimbledon, surely. She's forty four years old. I cannot I cannot believe she's forty four years old. Unbelievable. I just really hope she does well. I really do because you know 's going to be h. it's going to be know forty four years old house off to the woman, but she is the go, I think as we've said before. Nobt by the way, this is for the singles. It had already been announced that she would be in the ladady' doubles with her sister with a wild card as well. So just Fantastic quuick update though on the World Cup because As critical as I am for these new structures with third place going through The bonus has been some amazing stories. It's been c. Cape Verde. againgain. I love it. Another draw, two points so they're probably going go through depending on their last game. Everyone's second team, surely. Two two against Uruguay. course won the World Cup before twwice And
