About this episode
The episode covers the new prime minister Andy Burnham's tax cuts on electricity bills, cabinet appointments, and the passing of football legend Kevin Keegan.
Britain has a new prime minister, with Andy Burnham officially entering Number 10 yesterday. He has announced electricity bills will be cut, funded by the cancellation of the digital ID programme. We also found out who has been picked for the top jobs in his cabinet, with John Healey picked as chancellor, as Wes Streeting became defence secretary and Angela Rayner made a return too. Also today, a man is charged with the murder of Ann Widdecombe, the latest on the Iran war, and the Tate brothers appear in court in Miami. And finally, Newcastle and England football legend Kevin Keegan has passed away at the age of 75. Sophy and Wilf have the day's news in just 10 minutes.
