Andy Burnham has reacted to Keir Starmer's resignation, and confirmed that he will try to replace him as Labour leader and prime minister.

"His decision marks the beginning of a transition and it is important that this process is conducted in an orderly and responsible way. I will put myself forward as part of this process”, Burnham said on social media.

While Starmer had been vowing to fight any leadership challenge, the tone shifted after Andy Burnham beat Reform UK in the Makerfield by-election on Thursday, and he announced his resignation on Monday morning.

Former Health Secretary Wes Streeting has said he will back Burnham’s bid.

Five new meningitis cases have been found in Kent, UK, taking the total number of confirmed and suspected cases to 20.

Officials are "proactively managing" the spread of the infection, adding the "general risk is low, even if the disease itself is extremely serious", Health Secretary Wes Streeting told the BBC.

Two people have died - a 21-year-old university student and Juliette, a sixth form pupil.

Susan Hopkins, chief executive of the UK Health Security Agency, said there was an "explosive nature" to the outbreak, while deputy chief medical officer Dr Thomas Waite said it was the quickest growing outbreak he had seen in his career.

A targeted vaccine programme for 5,000 students is being set up at the University of Kent in Canterbury.

Scrolling through a check-list on his mobile phone, the latest asylum seeker to set foot in Britain asked me where he could exchange his foreign currency. The 25-year-old man from the Middle East had just arrived by bus at Belfast Grand Central Station through a backdoor route from the Republic of Ireland to the United Kingdom.

He had flown from Germany to Dublin Airport, before boarding the Translink X1 bus service to Northern Ireland. I was on the bus, retracing the two-hour journey believed to have been used by Hadi Alodid, the Sudanese man charged with the attempted murder of Stephen Ogilvie, 44, who lost an eye and suffered life-changing injuries in a knife attack in Belfast.

Speaking at Downing Street, the prime minister said that British planes "are in the sky today" in the Middle East "as part of co-ordinated regional defensive operations to protect our people, our interests and our allies".

"It is vital we prevent further escalation and return to a diplomatic process," he adds and says that he also wants to see "peace and security and the protection of civilian life".

US forces have carried out new strikes on targets in Iran, after President Donald Trump accused the country of a "foolish violation" of the ceasefire in the Middle East. It follows an attack on a cargo ship in the Strait of Hormuz, which was hit by a drone two days ago.

US Central Command said it has responded by attacking missile and drone storage facilities and coastal radar positions in Iran. There has been no comment yet from the regime in Tehran.

Moments before the attacks were announced, President Trump said "you'll see" when asked if the US would respond to the Iranian attack on the cargo ship..

US Central Command - Centcom - described the strikes as "a powerful response" to the drone attack. In a statement it said: "The unwarranted aggression against commercial shipping by Iranian forces clearly violated the ceasefire… Iran's dangerous behavior undermined freedom of navigation as commerce increasingly flows through the vital international trade corridor."

Centcom said the US military would "continue to provide safe passage coordination and support to commercial vessels transiting the strait".

After US and Israeli launched a massive assault on Iran in February, Tehran closed the strait of Hormuz- a critical waterway for oil and gas shipments - causing a surge in global energy prices and choking off shipments of other crucial commodities such as fertiliser.

The US and Iran agreed on 17 June to end hostilities under a 14-point memorandum of understanding, which requires Iran to use its "best efforts for the safe passage of commercial vessels with no charge for 60 days".

The UK’s hottest June day on record has been broken again during this week's heatwave, with a provisional temperature of 36.4C recorded in Yeovilton, Somerset.

This surpasses the high of 36.1C set on Wednesday in Gosport, Hampshire, the Met Office said.

It comes after the Met Office extended its red warning for extreme heat into Friday as the peak of a heatwave affecting most of England and Wales are set to shift eastwards.

From midnight tonight until 9pm on Friday, the red warning will be in place across large parts of the South East and the East of England, the forecaster said.

In the East of England, the warning applies to Central Bedfordshire, Essex, Hertfordshire, Luton and Thurrock.

Meanwhile in the capital and the South East, Bracknell Forest, Brighton and Hove, Buckinghamshire, East Sussex, Greater London, Hampshire, Kent, Medway, Milton Keynes, Oxfordshire, Reading, Slough, Surrey, West Berkshire, West Sussex, Windsor and Maidenhead, and Wokingham are affected.

But how long will this heat continue for - and when will the thunderstorms arrive?
