Just looking across our polling since Burnham became PM and young people are really interesting. Labour have pulled into a comfortable lead with 18-24 men, but despite the Greens dropping back overall they still have a more than 20pt lead with 18-24 women.

The BBC’s latest audience figures show it’s reaching more than half a billion people worldwide — 502 million — for the first time in its history. That’s more than 6% of the entire world’s population. It’s a huge achievement for Britain’s global influence.

“Not anger, not fear, just love…..” Pep’s goodbye is masterful, this is real Manchesterism, the spirit of the place, the essence of the north through loss, through pain, through it all to glory. A truly spiritual man. A leader.
