Had laser treatment yesterday to remove clouding of the replacement lenses in my eyes at Addenbrookes hospital. Brilliant care. All the team were born outside UK. Felt like hugging each of them (didnāt!). Felt shame at the anti-migration rhetoric they have to endure. We would be lost without them.

Green Party source responds: "The problem is we just don't know which Andy Burnham is going to turn up? The Blairite politician who went along with years of privatisation and welfare cuts, or the one who publicly supported PR and changes to the failed economic model? We just don't know."

please do due diligence. Don't trust Burnham. What has he promised Josh Simons who should be nowhere near politics following his smearing of journalists investigating undeclared funding of Labour Together. This looks like continuity McSweeney/Mandelson not a fresh start.
