Scotland's Yousaf will resign as first minister - BBC

[JPost] Scotland's first minister Humza Yousaf will resign as early as Monday, the BBC reported, after the possibility of him winning a vote of confidence this week appeared to dwindle over the weekend.
Scotland is too white
“Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf to resign as early as today, the BBC understands," BBC News said, without citing a source.

Scotland's First Minister Humza Yousaf will give a press conference later on Monday, Times Radio reported Monday morning.

Yousaf quit as head of the pro-independence Scottish National Party (SNP) after a week of chaos triggered by his scrapping of a coalition agreement with Scotland's Greens.

He then failed to secure enough support to survive votes of no confidence against him expected later this week.

It came in handy at the outset of WWII when Members of Parliament realized that Neville Chamberlain wasn't up to the task and Churchill had been right about Hitler all along.

I'm guessing the reason we don't is fear of an unstable government if we could change presidents at the drop of a hat. But how stable is our government now with Joe Biden in the White House?
