Burnham will be crowned PM after passing 323 nominations - as he 'plots autumn mega-budget' Story by James Tapsfield, Uk Political Editor •
Andy Burnham has made his coronation as Labour leader mathematically certain after passing 323 nominations from MPs. Backbencher Mike Reader declared that he had added to the wave of endorsements for Mr Burnham this morning. On top of the 322 who have already formally supported the former Greater Manchester Mayor, the move means no other challenger can enter the contest. They would need 81 nominations to qualify and there are only 403 Labour MPs in total. In reality, Mr Burnham's appointment was already assured because Keir Starmer has said he will not support anyone. He will officially become party leader on Friday, and take over from Keir Starmer on Monday. However, there is still widespread concern about a lack of clarity on what Mr Burnham will do with his new power – obtained without even the approval of Labour members, let alone the general public. He is said to be plotting a 'mega-Budget' in the Autumn, combining a major fiscal package with a full spending review. Fears are mounting about a new tax raid focused on the 'wealthy' South, with allies pushing proposals including a land tax, council tax revaluation and enhanced mansion tax to fund a splurge on council housing and public control of utilities. https://www.msn.com/en-xl/news/other/burnham-will-be-crowned-pm-after-passing-323-nominations-as-he-plots-autumn-mega-budget/ar-AA27NcWI?ocid=winp1taskbar&cvid=6c49e4b32f8f4d20cd733a08324774b1&ei=9

Hello my dear friend, I hope you and your loved ones are safe and well. I’m writing again because life here in Gaza has become even more difficult, and this month support has been very limited while our needs continue to grow. Although the rain has stopped, the cold has become harsher. The freezing wind cuts through our tent day and night, making it almost impossible to stay warm. The children shiver at night, and we struggle daily just to protect them from the cold and keep them healthy. Everyday life here is about survival finding warmth, food, and basic necessities, and trying to hold on with dignity. We are doing everything we can, but the situation is overwhelming. Any support whether through donating, sharing our campaign, or keeping us in your prayers can make a real difference for us during this difficult time.

My immediate family, including me, my wife, our four children, dad, mom, sister and brother, ran first to my uncle's house outside Shuja'iya and then to the Arab National Hospital, which was also bombed. We miraculously escaped death. After the bombing of the hospital, numerous confrontations with death, we fled to Rafah. I was working in a Saudi online marketing company and with other companies as a graphic designer. I was outstanding in my work and had many happy clients when the genocide started. Since our house was bombed, I lost my laptop and then my customers, my source of income. I have no money to buy another device. More than two years of fear and...
