[ORIGINAL TEXT REMOVED] Keith, whilst I have some empathy with the point I think you are trying to make, I worry that your wording could (potentially) be interpreted as libellous. Perhaps consider an edit?

And now there's going to be a vote of no confidence (probably early next week)

At least the SNPs fortunes cant get much worse Now it will be difficult to go further down hill but I have always had great faith in the ability of the snp to exceed my expectations.

Closer to say that in most countries (excluding axis of evil countries) a billionaire can do anything he likes and get away with it.
I don't know who Laurence Fox is and have no desire to, now you're going to tell me he's a billionaire!
Musk did settle out of court with the Thailand rescue worker which would have been chicken feed.

And now there's going to be a vote of no confidence (probably early next week) So the SNP are effectively 1 seat short of a majority in the Scottish parliament. The greens have said they will vote against Yousaf, and you would assume that the Lib dems, Labour and Tories will also vote against. That appears to give a lot of power to the single independent MP (who represents Alex Salmond's Alba party) to twist a few arms.
Will be interesting to see how it all pans out.

There was a suggestion that the woman that finished second in the election for leader may not be keen to support Yousuf. I guess if he falls she is in prime position to get the top job.

That would make things interesting - she's the religious nutter one that's against pre-marital sex, homosexuality (not just equal marriage), abortion, Sunday trading, etc etc.

Apparently she's sent in a list of demands for policies or termination of policies.
Another irony being is that the "speaker" is a green, but won't vote, and in the event of a tie is expected to vote by convention for the status quo

Teenaged Indonesia offspinner Rohmalia created a new world record for best bowling figures in women's T20I cricket on Wednesday, when she returned 7 for 0 against Mongolia in their fifth T20I in Bali. That she achieved the feat on her international debut made it all the more special.
Needless to say, Indonesia won by a considerable margin

Being childless yourself, I'm sure you wouldn't disagree. www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c72pnllv8nko
