He is PNG with the current Tory party because he is considered a pro-European and I think he has enough dignity not to offer a running commentary on the demise of the party he has represented It will be interesting if he gets any punditry during the GE He was giving interviews at the beginning of March

West Brom have also had a run of poor form as they were sat in fifth place for months and now there is a possibility they may not make the playoffs Norwich are the only in form team in those places

Now that I can breathe easy can we just look at how exciting the last day of the Championship is going to be on Saturday Ipswich need a point at home to relegated Huddersfield to secure second Leeds need to beat fourth place Southampton and Ipswich lose to get the automatic promotion (Which could also be the play off final) There are three teams vying for the other two playoff spots. Norwich need a point against Birmingham but can only lose out on a spot if WBA pick up points against Preston and Hull smash Plymouth by 4+ goals and Birmingham do the same to Norwich However at the other end of the table it is even scrappier four teams are still in danger of ending up in the last relegation spot. Sheffield Wednesday have a terrible goal difference and if both Birmingham and Plymouth win and they lose it is they that make the drop. However if Birmingham and Plymouth win and Sheffield get a draw (at Sunderland) then Blackburn face the unfortunate prospect of League 1 next season if they lose at Mighty Champions Leicester who could reach 100 points with a win. A draw for Birmingham is only good enough if Plymouth are smashed around by Hull Which means 7 of the 12 matches has something riding on it Rotherham vs Cardiff is just going to be a swan song but there is the possibility of three Yorkshire teams dropping out of the Championship depriving Sheffield of derby days next season but United will still get a Derby (County) day

Well as we are Champions now Blackburn need the points more than we do but there is going to be a party atmosphere at King Power on Saturday. Even if Blackburn lose they will still be very unlucky to be relegated. All three teams below will have to take points and some of their opponents still have unfinished business with the playoffs

Surely the last thing the Conservatives need now is an election in Scotland before the Westminster one. They must be facing the prospect of huge losses of MSPs because IIRC they did quite well last time

It is interesting that the Conservatives were happy to have a vote of no confidence in the First Minister but not bring one against the minority Government. I suppose it is understandable when they have their own second unelected leader in place in Westminster who is resisting calls to go to the country

Arthur Hughes is playing the lead role who was brilliant at the RSC as Richard III a couple of years ago. Was notable as the first disabled actor to play Richard III

Only four of my Top 10 remain but three of my top 5

My post earlier wasn't that his resignation was being promoted by racist bots more that people were focusing very much on his race when responding to his resignation, in particular there was one phrase that kept cropping up which made me think it was a campaign. One post seemed to link his resignation to promote Susan Hall's London Mayor campaign by making a connection between The First Minister and the incumbent mayor (and they weren't suggesting that a woman should be in charge)

The racist bots on Twitter are having a field day. Deeply unpleasant to watch.
