The Phone In

Available for 28 days

Andy Burnham will replace Sir Keir Starmer as Prime Minister today. He'll be the seventh British Prime Minister since 2016 - and it comes just a month after he returned to Westminster as an MP. Sir Keir said goodbye to Number 10 Downing Street in a speech this morning. The new PM is due to set out his priorities for government at lunchtime. So, what do you think Andy Burnham can do for Wales? Are you retired or thinking about retiring? New research shows that more than 70 per cent of over 50s think retirement is not about stopping work altogether, but about working more flexibly. Many companies offer part-time jobs to people who want to carry on working. Tell us what you're up to! Have you retired from work? When you retire, will you be putting your feet up or will you be working in your 60s and beyond? And finally, the World Cup came to a spectacular close last night - with Spain beating Argentina 1-0 in extra time. The final featured a half time show for the first time, which lasted 24 minutes. This has been one of the most talked about World Cups, but not just for the football. With hydration breaks, politicians having their say and sky-high ticket prices, have you enjoyed this World Cup? Call or WhatsApp 03700 100 110 or Text 8 10 12. Be part of the nation's conversation.
