East Midlands Railway (EMR) has fully refurbished and returned three Class 158 Diesel Multiple Units (DMUs) to active passenger service.As part of a larger £60 million regional fleet upgrade, EMR is investing £5.2 million specifically into its fleet of 26 two-car Class 158 trains. The status of the program details include:Completed units: Three trains are finished. The very first unit to complete the process was No. 158847, which was unveiled at Nottingham station.Current status: The remaining 23 units are progressing through the overhaul line. To minimize passenger disruption, EMR sends two units out of service at any one time to Arriva TrainCare in Bristol for the upgrades.Completion target: Due to early delays caused by table alignment issues, the full fleet rollout is scheduled to be completed by the end of June 2026.Upgrades Included in the RefurbishmentPassengers traveling primarily along the Liverpool to Norwich corridor will see several key improvements:Interior refresh: High-durability EMR-branded seat foams, new covers, new carpets, and vestibule flooring.At-seat facilities: Brand new tabletops alongside the integration of USB-A power points.Technology upgrades: Brand new on-board Passenger Information Systems (PIS) for real-time journey updates.Safety & branding: Complete exterior repainting into EMR livery, accompanied by new forward-facing cameras and remote-download CCTV systems.Would you like to know more about the specific routes these refurbished units are currently covering, or details on EMR's parallel Class 170 refurbishment progress?

I seem to have been a little more sleepy today, well watching the news today, a little more, may be.

Some people seem to have short memory, and have forgot about Johnson, or Liz Truss, and how bad they was, and most of the thing they find fault today, was from when Johnson and then short time Truss, was P.M ?

From here

Just talking, silly me,

 No, Prime Minister Keir Starmer is not expected to be replaced today, but he is widely anticipated to announce a formal timetable for his resignation. While political sources indicate he may deliver a statement outside 10 Downing Street, the transition of power will take time to process. [1, 2]

## Current Situation * Resignation Timetable: Starmer spent the weekend at Chequers drafting an orderly exit plan. Reports from [The Guardian](https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2026/jun/21/keir-starmer-expected-exit-plan-clear-way-andy-burnham-become-pm) and the [BBC](https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cql10wwy69zo) indicate he will likely signal an autumn departure (potentially September) to align with the Labour Party conference. [1, 3, 4] * Immediate Replacement: He will remain in office as Prime Minister until a successor is officially chosen, meaning no immediate replacement will take over today. [1, 4, 5, 6, 7] ## Why Is This Happening? * The Makerfield By-Election: The political crisis was triggered after prominent Labour rival Andy Burnham won the Makerfield by-election. This victory allows Burnham to enter Parliament and mount a direct leadership challenge. [1, 3, 8, 9] * Cabinet Pressure: Senior government figures—including Foreign Secretary Yvette Cooper—have reportedly told Starmer his position is untenable and urged him to step aside to avoid an internal party war. [8, 10] * Declining Popularity: The government has faced months of poor polling numbers, compounded by public backlash over welfare cuts and a controversial diplomatic vetting scandal involving Peter Mandelson. [11, 12] ## Who Will Take Over? * Andy Burnham is the clear frontrunner. Senior party members are pushing for an agreed transition directly to him to prevent a disruptive and prolonged leadership contest.

Wow, quite the dramatic turn of events in UK politics. It seems like Keir Starmer's time as PM is coming to an end. Wonder how the transition of power will unfold. Andy Burnham seems to be the favorite to take over, but we'll see what happens next.

Unlike Boris Johnson or Liz Truss, he not done a bad job, and many things people moan about, have been cause by the last government ?

youToday at 5:42 AM

That's a fair point, it's easy to forget the previous government's decisions can have lasting impact. Do you think the public will give the new PM a chance to make a difference?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:43 AM

I think the right wing press, Reform that promotes myth, about immigration, and promoting people own fear, for they own gain,

youToday at 5:44 AM

Unfortunately, spreading misinformation and playing on people's fears can be an effective way to sway public opinion. Do you think the Labour Party has done enough to counter these narratives?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:44 AM

That one area they have failed, sadly,

youToday at 5:45 AM

It's hard to combat misinformation when it's spread through powerful media channels. Maybe the Labour Party needs to find new ways to reach people and set the record straight.

Nice plan! Do you think the roaming feature is a game changer for travelers?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:49 AM

Flexiphone seem to use all thee, or four UK network 🛜, (well Vodephone and Three, seem to be one company now, so network in the future will be joined up more) , the price show it higher, but would it be better ?

youToday at 5:51 AM

That's an interesting point, with Vodafone and Three merging, it could lead to a stronger, more reliable network. But would the benefits outweigh the potentially higher cost?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:51 AM

Would going with a company that use Vodephone or Three network, as they joining up together, be better, is EE, owned by BT, better ? M

youToday at 5:54 AM

That's a valid concern, considering EE's close ties with BT. Might be worth looking into alternative providers like Ecotalk, which uses EE's network without those potential conflicts of interest.

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:54 AM

Yes, I think EcoTalk might not be the cheapest, but at least they put profits into good causes?

youToday at 5:55 AM

Exactly, their approach to using profits for charity and environmental projects is definitely a plus. Does that resonate with you, supporting a company that gives back to the community?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:55 AM

From 27th June, so about a week now, I plan to replace my O2 sim, and keep my phone number with a new contract, with EcoTalk, or someone else,

youToday at 5:56 AM

Exciting changes ahead! Have you already spoken to EcoTalk about porting your number over from O2, or is that still on your to-do list?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:56 AM

That to do, but ai can get a code from O2, that will make it easy,

youToday at 5:57 AM

Getting a PAC code from O2 should indeed simplify the process. Are you leaning towards confirming with EcoTalk once you have the code?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:57 AM

Yes, 👍 , I got two other phone number now, that I can use , for the time being, to test out Lyca and VOXi, Voxi seem quite good, and part of Vodephone, but the phone signal not great

youToday at 5:59 AM

So you're trying out Lyca and VOXi, and VOXi's caught your attention despite the signal issues. How does its features and pricing compare to EcoTalk in your mind?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 5:59 AM

EE signal is the best, mostly , but ? ecoTalk and Lyca use EE , I think 🧐, so that might be the way I go

youToday at 6:01 AM

Using EE's network is a big plus, and since both ecotalk and Lyca use it, that's definitely a consideration. What's making you lean towards ecotalk though, is it their charitable aspect or something else?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 6:01 AM

For the good causes they do , promoting environmental issues

youToday at 6:02 AM

Their commitment to environmental causes is really admirable, and using profits to support those initiatives is a great reason to choose them. Does that align with your personal values?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 6:02 AM

I hope so, I aim to be better, and help others, do the same ? That something I am very weak at, as easy said than done, and we need to respect other views, and reasons, as well, as we are not perfect ?

youToday at 7:58 AM

Recognizing our weaknesses and striving to improve is already a huge step forward. Respecting differing opinions is crucial, especially when it comes to complex social and environmental issues. Do you find it challenging to balance your own convictions with the need to consider opposing viewpoints?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 7:58 AM

Yes, that hard for me, we know why we think, and view the world, and life around us, but it harder to understand what other know, or feel, and think, even if we are correct, that might not mean others who disagree, are wrong ?

youToday at 8:01 AM

Understanding our own perspectives is relatively straightforward, but putting ourselves in others' shoes can be tough. Do you think actively listening to opposing views and asking questions helps bridge that gap?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:01 AM

Yes, I hope so, but it hard to think about views, we got reason why we might not agree with, and find it hard to understand, even do not wish to understand , may be, but how will we learn why we can be wrong, if we do not understand why, we stay the fool that make mistakes, not learn from them ?

youToday at 8:10 AM

Figuring out why things are the way they are can be incredibly challenging, but recognizing that we might be wrong is a huge step. Being open to learning from mistakes requires a certain level of humility, don't you think?

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:10 AM

Yes, may be that why I am not very good at that, as I wish to be correct all the time, and that not going to happen

youToday at 8:10 AM

Wanting to be right all the time can create a rigid mindset that misses opportunities for growth. It takes courage to admit when we're wrong and be willing to learn from it.

גַּבְרִיאֵלToday at 8:11 AM

We need the drive to be correct, but also to lean why, more than just saying we are, and to learn , and correct ourselves.

youToday at 8:12 AM

That's a delicate balance between confidence and humility. By acknowledging that we might be wrong, we can actually strengthen our understanding and become more accurate in the long run.
