JUST before FMQs on Thursday, we learnt that Ian Blackford plans to stand down as SNP group leader at Westminster.
This is bad news for all the Tory MPs who enjoyed using Blackford’s appearances at PMQs as an excuse to relive the days when they were the top bully at Eton.
For the last few years, every time Blackford has gotten to his feet the Tory backbenches have let out a loud groan. This is always followed by a ripple of smug laughter at their own brilliance and quick-wit.
