A member of Truss's own cabinet tells me Truss's and Kwarteng's governance is so dire that some Tory MPs would vote against her in a confidence vote, preferring even a general election that cost them their seats to the current economic chaos

Extremely tense match which could have gone either way. In the end I edged it 8.5-7.5.

Sheffield B get Andy Mort his first victory as captain. The M1 was closed from J36 but Sheffield very sportingly agreed a later start.

Those who missed Hull after last year's British may well enjoy this reminder. All happening on the Humber, with the English Women's Ch. end of this month and then the @4NCL Hull International October half-term. #chess #Hull

Played for @YorkshireChess against Surrey in the finals of the County Championship today. I won (not sure I deserved to), Yorkshire won 11-5. We win the 100th County Championship - and hold the impressive Lowenthal Trophy which is apparently valued at £70k.

Congratulations to White Rose 1 for throwing a spanner in the title race! Wins for James Adair, Tim Wall and Sue Maroroa.

Fine work by @WIM_Maroroa to clinch victory for White Rose over Manx. One year Guildford won't be clear by the final day @4NCL! #chess
