It last rained in Portsmouth on June 26. The Met Office is saying it *might* rain on August 5. That's 40 days without any rain! Genuinely bewildering that much of the media hasn't engaged with what is happening. What happens in years to come - when that's 50 days? 60 days?

Burnham won't be able to change our social care system until he fixes one thing: private companies sucking profit out of this essential public service. Councils spend £34.5bn a year on care, but this cash is being sucked out of the system as profit and investor returns. 1/3

After 6 years leading the @4Day_Week Foundation/Campaign, tomorrow is my last day as Campaign Director. I'm proud we've taken the four-day week from being a fringe idea to a mainstream & viable policy which has already been implemented by at least 500 organisations in the UK.

Very disappointing. The Renters' Rights Act was a positive step but let's be honest - it has done nothing to reduce rents which is the fundamental issue. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2d…

Angela Rayner rules out rent controls in England

The housing secretary tells the BBC that the Renters Rights' Act is already having a significant impact on the market.

No Rachel, you are not leaving the UK economy stronger, healthier. No Keir, you are not leaving Britain in a better state than you found it. There is a reason you were booted out by your own party: Together, you did enormous harm to Britain's social fabric & ethos. Good night! theguardian.com/politics/liv…

Healey made chancellor, Miliband named foreign secretary and Yvette Cooper becomes health secretary...

Rayner is back as housing secretary, while Mahmood and McFadden remain in their existing posts

Green Party source on briefings Ed M won’t be chancellor: “The Labour briefings on the chancellor are a gift to us. Openly highlighting they don’t want change, briefing that the bankers don’t want Miliband, surreal levels of hitting the ball over the bar.”

Thomas Tuchel went for the same strategy as vs Mexico without, it seems, appreciating Argentina have the attacking ability to unpick a low block over 30mins. That is a pitiful way to exit the World Cup at this stage.

"City relieved" = Burnham's government won't challenge the power of the bankers, or tax their wealth. Who is choosing our politicians - the people or the banking sector?
