Victoria Derbyshire
The Victoria Derbyshire programme has been discussing whether it's time for electoral reform. Nigel Farage - whose party got more than three million votes across the country but ended up with one MP - says first-past-the-post is "bankrupt... it just doesn't work". So what would he suggest? He thinks AV+ would be a sensible way forward. (See our guide to the various options for political presentation here.)
Green Party leader Natalie Bennett adds that ordinary voters want change, saying the public are fed up with feeling they are "forced to vote for the lesser of two evils" . We really need a new system, she says, as she restates her party's call for a "national conversation" on the way forward.

Amber Rudd has just entered Downing Street as climate change minister. Could she emerge with a promotion - to the new secretary of state for energy and climate change - a position previously held by Lib Dem Ed Davey? Time will tell...

Boris Johnson has just arrived at Downing Street - much to the waiting media's excitement. "Give us a wave Boris," they shout. He duly obliges. That pleased them. Time for speculation now about what job - if any - he'll be given by the prime minister. Perhaps a minister without porfolio role, speculates our own Norman Smith.

Ben Bradshaw is asked who he'd like to succeed Ed Miliband? "I haven't decided yet," he says.
He adds that the candidates need to be given time to set out their stalls, make the argument and show people they understand why Labour lost and how to win in 2020.
Quote MessageOne thing I will say is I think I would prefer to see one of the new generation come forward rather than someone associated with the Blair or Brown era. I think somebody without that baggage from the past."

"I can really speak my mind now," says the now ex-leader of UKIP, Nigel Farage. Asked whether he's given more thought to putting his hat into the ring in the leadership contest later this year, Mr Farage says he hasn't - instead he's thinking about the referendum.
He predicts this government will be a re-run of John Major's 1992 government which saw the Conservative Party paralysed by infighting over the issue of Europe.
Mr Davis, who says he lived through it, disagrees. The Conservative Party has seen the consequences of it, he says, and notes that this time round there is going to be a referendum.

The EU referendum will increase the risk of Scotland breaking away from the rest of the UK, claims Labour's Ben Bradshaw.
Quote MessageThere's no way the Scots would tolerate being pulled out of the EU against their will. That really would definitely lead to the break up of the United Kingdom."

Former Lib Dem leader Sir Menzies Campbell says he fears the first two years of this government will be dominated by constitutional issues, which will go a long way to create "more disaffection among the public".
