I figured that this deserved its own thread, with the news breaking in the last hour that Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon is to stand down.
A press conference from Bute House is coming up at 11AM. I wonder whether STV or BBC One Scotland will break with network and take Sturgeon's statement live

I hope someone in the press uses the headline ‘Nicola Sturgone’.

I wondered if BBC 1 Scotland would take it, but they have BBC News on BBC 2 from 10-1pm anyway so probably not?

Or it's used in one of the newspapers later this evening.

BBC One Scotland just ran a strap telling viewers to switch channels to watch breaking news.
