Burnham will be sworn in at 2.30 this afternoon.
I don't know if we'll expect Starmer to be in the Commons for that, will we?
No, I'd be amazed.
Watching his own execution.
So I have to say, when we were talking about this over the weekend, we did imagine a contest which opened on Tuesday, frankly, and was sort of all done and dusted a week later by the 9th.
The way Starmer has set it out is slightly longer, which is it opens on the 9th.
In other words, a sort of, what is that, a week tomorrow.
And it is finalised by the 16th of July.
Exactly.
Now, we know that West Streeting has, in the last couple of hours...
pulled away from his own bid to be leader.
We can debate whether that means he didn't get the numbers or he did get a deal, a big sort of offer of a sort of big state of office job.
And we are waiting to see if anyone else will come forward.
But if no one does, and I probably would bet money on that as we speak, then Andy Burnham could go from being an MP today...
to being a PM a week on Wednesday?
What do you think about X?
Look, he's got Jim O'Neill, the ex Goldman Sachs banker, in his ear.
And the one word that you keep on hearing is be brave, right?
If Andy Burnham is the answer to Keir Starmer, then presumably his policies have to be the answer to incrementalism.
In other words, he has to come in and do something.
