Coalition talks began immediately between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats, and lasted for five days. There was an aborted attempt to put together a Labour/Liberal Democrat coalition (although other smaller parties would have been required to make up the ten seats they lacked for a majority). To facilitate this, Gordon Brown announced on the evening of Monday 10 May that he would resign as Leader of the Labour Party. Realising that a deal between the Conservatives and the Liberal Democrats was imminent, the next day on Tuesday 11 May Brown announced his resignation as Prime Minister, marking the end of 13 years of Labour government. This was accepted by Queen Elizabeth II, who then invited David Cameron to form a government in her name and become Prime Minister

Derby cheese is a mild, semi-firm British cow's milk cheese made in Derbyshire with a smooth, mellow texture and a buttery flavour. Like most of the traditional British hard cheeses it was produced exclusively on farms and was typically sold at a younger age than its more famous cousins Cheddar and Cheshire.

Sounds good that.

None of the three main party leaders had previously led a general election campaign, a situation which had not occurred since the 1979 election. During the campaign, the three main party leaders engaged in a series of televised debates, the first such debates in a UK general election campaign.

Spartacus from Derby board wants Steve Staunton as manager ASAP.

New Labour in power ended 10 years ago today.

PMQs are going to be very uncomfortable for Johnson now he is up against Starmer and simple, forensically targeted questions. He was woeful today.

Cher Lloyd's took to Instagram to reveal that her father is 'seriously unwell' and has been hospitalised on Wednesday afternoon.

The singer, 25, previously said she feared for her dad Darren's health after he had been hospitalised twice during the coronavirus lockdown.

Cher told her followers her father was back in hospital and thanked the NHS staff for taking care of him during this 'scary time'.

Singer?

Forest fans still talking about THAT 2007-08 season, yet haven't been in EPL since 1999

"Whole Again" is the fifth single released from British pop girl group Atomic Kitten's debut album, Right Now (2000). It is the group's biggest selling single to date and was the final single to feature founding member Kerry Katona, who left the group midway through promoting the single. "Whole Again" was the first single released from the album in Europe and South Africa. It was a massive success, reaching number one in several countries, and selling over a million copies in the UK alone.

Hope you pick the right cheese or the section is increased

Is there a wrong cheese?

Maybe bat milk cheese. Think I'd swerve that one.

19 good year all the same.
