@LozzaFox Looking a bit like the baddies in Superman Lozza.

@BumbleCricket Also, feels a bit like they are making it up as they go along.

[Brian McMullan 🏏 @BMac_19]

@BumbleCricket Does feel like a bit of a mess, Bumble. Neatly illustrated by the fact that the new Test Coach won’t be joining until the winter.

@ian4downton We also don’t know how he will pay for his spending… October will be an interesting month.

Very sad. What a player her was. #FrancoBaresi #RIP

[Match of the Day @BBCMOTD]

Some sad news to bring you.

AC Milan and Italy legend Franco Baresi has died aged 66. Our thoughts are with his family and friends.

Nigel Farage is toast.

[Brian McMullan 🏏 @BMac_19]

Losing to Polanski & Davey says it all…

[Owen Winter @OwenWntr]

In a best PM matchup, Nigel Farage loses against every other party leader:

Burnham +26
Badenoch +24
Davey +11
Polanski +2

@FabrizioRomano @AnfieldSector @olliefoxy @carl_lewis_91 @ATLiverpool_ Come on, Fab. Surely you have earned £150 mill from Twitter, that you can use to buy him for Liverpool?!

EXC: Burnham flew to his first day at No10 North on Prime Ministerial jet GBNI, an Airbus A321. This would have cost around £30,000 for taxpayers

He landed in Manchester at 0957 so has been ‘working from No10 North’ office for less than an hour

I predict this expensive gimmick will be quietly dropped WL within 12 months.

"This is what No. 10 North is all about. Putting power in every postcode."

New PM Andy Burnham declares today as the "best day of my life", as he opens new No. 10 North and emphasises he wants to get "the whole country facing the same way".

Great decision, if true…!

Exc: Grant Shapps believed to be one of at least 10 ex Tory MPs who have failed their assessments as Badenoch overhauls selection process

I think the contract issue is interesting, @DineshKarthik. As, Bethell, for eg, already has a contract with Warwickshire, and central contract with the ECB.

Can’t say I blame em.

[The Telegraph @Telegraph]

The White House has raised concerns over Ed Miliband's appointment as Foreign Secretary, The Telegraph understands.

Donald Trump's team reportedly warned against giving him an international-facing role.

@nigelmp At least RedEd isn’t in control of energy anymore, Nigel…

@90Adamb @AndyMitten @ColeraineFC Awesome city, mate. I’ve been there, and loved it. Great place, great people.

[Brian McMullan 🏏 @BMac_19]

May god help us all.

[Politics UK @PolitlcsUK]

🚨 BREAKING: Andy Burnham has appointed Ed Miliband as Foreign Secretary

[Brian McMullan 🏏 @BMac_19]

@pete_virgilio Absolutely. Hilarious lack of self-awareness. That said, suspect this is some sort of reverse psychology, as he will be worried for his seat, given all the scandal around Nige and dosh!

[Brian McMullan 🏏 @BMac_19]

Strange old day… #Starmer resigns, someone with a democratic mandate, and is replaced by a bloke who had not been in parliament for a decade. #Burnham. Bizarre.

[Kevin Schofield @KevinASchofield]

A senior Labour source on Andy Burnham's first speech as PM: "He calls for stability after he spent a year trying to destabilise Keir. Unbelievable."
