Praise be - our newest Messiah has been anointed, as Andy Burnham became the Labour Party's latest chosen one to fix both the fractured political group and the wider problems of an ailing, cash-strapped and bitterly divided UK. The man himself would be the first to say he's not a miracle worker of course, but then only the true Messiah denies his divinity.
Heatwave could send energy bills soaring as Scotland faces hotter future
