What will be the legacy of Sir Keir Starmer? Will he have one? 

He's already stepped down as leader of the British Labour Party and says a successor will be in place by Parliament's return in September at the latest.   

It comes after more than 90 Labour MPs called for the Prime Minister to resign after the party's poor results in recent polls. 

UK Correspondent Enda Brady told Mike Hosking that Starmer has no legacy – the Labour Party had no message and no plan. 

He says they waited 14 years to get into government, and there was no plan.

Coach Andrew Webster is pleased with the Warriors NRL season to date. 

They’re sitting second on the table more than halfway into the season, following their win over the Cowboys at a sold-out One NZ Stadium. 

Webster told Mike Hosking that they’re very ambitious, and while they have fallen short on a few occasions, they’ve made improvements compared to where they were this time last year. 

He says they just need to fix those moments so they can go on and try and be the team they want to be. 

But the Warriors will continue their charge without in form prop Jackson Ford for the foreseeable future. 

The 28 year old suffered a pectoral muscle injury during Sunday's win, and was spotted in a sling post-match. 

Webster told Mike Hosking that worst case, he’ll be out until the finals, and best case he’ll be out for four to six weeks – they're just waiting on the scans to find out.

People are shopping for fruit and veggies over meat as more start weight loss drugs.

President Jerry Prendergast told Mike Hosking they're not bad things for people to eat. 

He says people are looking for fresh produce as a lighter alternative, instead of heavy protein they may have eaten in the past.

New All Black captain Ardie Savea denies he's worse off from having skipped Super Rugby to play a season in Japan. 

Savea returns to lead the national side for the upcoming Nations Championship tests after returning from Kobe in Japan. 

He told Mike Hosking that there’s a perception that Japan isn’t that great of a team, but they have world class coaches and players mixed in with local players. 

Savea says you’ve got to be playing high-quality games, and while you can define what that means, he doesn’t know – what he does know is that Japan has been great.

A snap election in the UK could be on the cards if newly elected MP Andy Burnham proves to be Labour's lifeline. 

UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has announced his plans to resign as Prime Minister and the leader of the Labour Party. 

It makes way for Burnham, who has now returned to Parliament as MP for Makerfield, and is considered a shoo-in to replace Starmer. 

UK Political Commentator Adam Boulton told Mike Hosking a snap election could be considered if Burnham's leadership results in a turnaround in Labour's fortunes in the polls. 

He says most of the time it's running a fairly distant second to Reform UK, if not third place alongside the Conservatives.

A fresh push for a nationwide bed tax has been launched by Regional Tourism New Zealand.  

Its proposal would see a small, user-pays tax for stays at hotels and Airbnbs, with the money going toward events and tourism infrastructure.  

The plan has the backing of several mayors including those of Auckland, Rotorua and Queenstown.  

Regional Tourism New Zealand Chair Andrew Wilson Mike Hosking that none of them want to see tourism growth curtailed, which means any charge needs to be modest. 

He says part of the reason they’re calling for a single national approach is so guardrails can be put in place to make sure the charge remains modest over time.

More small and medium businesses are looking to trim the fat after years of constant pressure. 

MyHR data shows in the first three months of the year, the hospitality industry recorded 191% more restructures than in the previous quarter. 

Financial and insurance sectors had their highest levels of restructuring in two years. 

MyHR spokesperson Sylvie Thrush Marsh told Mike Hosking businesses aren't always turning to redundancies. 

She says some may be dropping a shift or trimming hours to save jobs. 

Thrush Marsh says it's reaching a crunch point for a lot of businesses – there's been high interest rates for most of 2023 and 2024, with tariffs and the Strait of Hormuz closure.
