Richey has been out enjoying the sunshine and recording his insights along the way. In the first of three videos, here he discusses the travesty that is Andy Burnham - who may well be our next Prime Minister.

Nominations for the Makerfield by-election close on Tuesday at 16:00. At this moment in time, the Green Party do not have a candidate, as their first choice dropped out on the same day they announced his candidacy. There are calls from within the party to stand down in order to give Burnham a free run, so Reform will be holding their breath and hoping they do not. Chances of a Reform victory have already been damaged by Rupert Lowe's decision to debut in Makerfield, so for the Greens to pull out at this late stage certainly won't help their chances.
We said people should be careful for what they wish for, and Burnham's succession of Starmer could be the turning point that resuscitates a party that was not just on life support - it was close to death.
