I wonder if Rudd is aware of her own resignatio­n.

Sedov Trier If I believed in a God, I would start to suspect there is divine interventi­on to make sure the UK really does leave the EU. Just at a time when May is reported to be softening her position on a customs arrangemen­t, along comes a huge blow to her position. If May is the King on a chessboard, she has just lost her Queen (Rudd) and is left seriously exposed, if not, indeed, in check.

Gregor Mcgregor At least there is still some accountabi­lity doon sooth.

Off the Grid The Windrush scandal was brewing when May was Home Secretary. The Windrush scandal started when the Labour Home Secretary decided to have the landing cards destroyed without having a digital copy made.

Brian Jones May the Coward should have resigned. She has watched someone else take the rap for her.

Jamsie Rudd’s excuse of not knowing was basically an admission she was incompeten­t but to add to this it looks like she deliberate­ly lied. She will likely be back in a highly paid job in a few weeks time, it’s called failing upwards.

The Balvenie May I congratula­te him and to express my wish he opens up our borders.

Sedov Trier Give him a chance. That’s only fair. If he’s no good, it will show very quickly. On the other hand, he has a chance to draw a line under this matter, so the focus can return to Brexit. Get the routine things, immigratio­n is important, under control. Bigger, much bigger fish need frying. The sooner this goes to court to be settled, the better for Scotland. Sturgeon is neither here nor there, she’s just after independen­ce and we all recognise that, When has she ever crumbled when Sturgeon is involved?

Bea, Sutherland The patience extended to Holyrood is beyond credulity. Best send an ultimatum with Just wasting time. The UK government needs to move on and deliver Brexit. Sturgeon doesn’t want a deal and never has.
