Andy Burnham, Angela Rayner, Wes Streeting – the list of potential names to challenge Keir Starmer is growing, but the leadership race is not on... yet.
Jess Phillips, who resigned from the government this week, tells Beth why she's backing Wes Streeting in a future race. She says Andy Burnham needs to be careful he doesn't look entitled as he searches for a parliamentary seat and gives a devastating verdict on the prime minister, telling Beth he "finds it hard to listen" in her first interview since resigning.
Plus, as one Labour MP resigns in Makerfield so Burnham can stand, can the "King of the North" win a by-election? Or is he gambling his job on a seat he can't win?
And can Starmer keep a lid on it all?
