No more first names in the Scottish Parliament's Chamber then now that Holyrood's Headie and Old Etonian Alex Fergusson has banned MSPs from calling each other by their Christian names. He has also decided that "members taking part in debates should be present for opening and closing speeches and stay in the chamber for at least two speeches after their own contribution."
Mmmmm. Mr Smith suspects it will feel a bit like being back in public school for some of Holyrood's posher members, but Mr Smith hopes they draw the line at reinstating the "slipper" for recalcitrant MSPs flouting the new rules.
