Andy Burnham is aiming to set an optimistic tone when he addresses Parliament for the first time as Prime Minster this afternoon. Burnham’s speech will cover public control of services and decentralisation of power, and he’ll also take MPs' questions. It’s six weeks since he became Prime Minister – so do you feel optimistic or pessimistic about the future of the Burnham premiership? Burnout has been identified as a growing problem in the workplace. According to TUC Cymru, stress is now the biggest workplace risk, overtaking more traditional dangers like heights and unsafe machinery. Has stress ever impacted your ability to work, and how did you deal with it? And is Lionel Messi the greatest footballer of all time? Messi has announced he is retiring from international football after more than 20 years playing for Argentina. Messi was signed by Barcelona aged just 13, and has won over 40 senior trophies, including the FIFA World Cup and UEFA Champions League. He will continue to play club football for Inter Miami.
