Alex Ferguson2 leaves Man Utd
And beats Margo Macdonald by a landslide to secure the job of Presiding Officer.1 1 I know. I’m two days too late. My mind is temporally disengaged anyway. When are those Scottish elections starting? 2 And the names are not even spelled the same. Sorry. Barrel bottom scraped, scoured, scrubbed and white-washed.
