There is a huge amount of talent on the front bench and the back bench of the parliamentary Labour Party.

I don’t think he’s listening to his former defence secretary, I don’t think he’s listening to military chiefs, I don’t think he’s listening to our Nato allies.

Yes, I believe we need a change of leadership and if Andy Burnham isn’t back, I still believe we need that change of leadership.

We can’t carry on with this uncertainty and paralysis, and there will need to be a contest, and I’d be prepared to do that.

I would rule out an early election and govern for the remainder of the parliamentary term.

It's more complicated than that.

Any Labour leadership contest must not become a race of who can offer the most expensive and popular pledges to the party faithful at the expense of the British people.

If not we can't carry on with this uncertainty and paralysis and there will need to be a contest and I would be prepared to do that.

I would prefer the PM to take a decision on his own terms rather than leave it for me or Andy or anyone else to trigger a contest.

I think the prime minister should be given some space and time to reflect over the weekend and I think we should see where we are then.

Successive governments have been sleeping, while Britain’s crying out for action. I will pass emergency laws to build data centres, nuclear power generation, transport infrastructure connecting people with jobs, and more.

We used to be a country that could do great things. With the promise that the next generation can have it better than the last. We still can. And I want to give people reason to believe again.

The best example we can set is to show the world that net zero is compatible with a pro-growth agenda.

Some will argue that this risks forfeiting our moral leadership on the climate issue. I simply don’t buy that argument.

It is to manage decline responsibly, apply strict climate tests, and channel the proceeds into projects that will cut bills and cut emissions.

The right approach is not to pretend North Sea oil and gas is the future, or to treat every remaining project as a moral catastrophe.

We still can build the infrastructure to grow our economy, we have to, and - if I become Prime Minister - we will.

I will pass emergency laws to build data centres, nuclear power generation, transport infrastructure connecting people with jobs, and more.

If Parliament can act in days to save British Steel, it can act with urgency to save Britain’s future prosperity.

Yes. We’ve got a mandate for a five-year Parliament. We were elected on a manifesto, we don’t live in a presidential system, we live in a parliamentary democracy.

There is a risk that a Labour leadership contest becomes a Dutch auction of the most expensive and popular pledges to appeal to the Party faithful at the expense of the British people.

I would hope that after Thursday’s by-election, when the results are in, and I very much hope Andy Burnham wins... I hope the Prime Minister will at that stage reflect on his own position and set out a timetable.

I think there should be a contest. I have every intention of standing in that contest.

There is a pragmatic case for producing our own gas rather than importing from abroad.

The triple lock on pensions is here to stay for the entirety of this Parliament.
