If he was going to reign on principle then he should have resigned years ago. IDS was one of the nastiest c***s in a cabinet full of them. I hope this takes Osborne down too.

A simple change of diet fixed mine. Much better now.
Most certainly not European. |

He either resigned on principle (in which case why now, rather than the other hardships he and his government have forced on the poor and disabled over the past 6 years?) or is jostling for position in an anticipated leadership contest. Has any politician been elected leader of his party, been forced out, then become leader again over a decade later? Very odd.

Would not surprise me at all if IDS re-surfaced in a few months time as UKIP.

I have missed you Balls, with your knee jerk prejudices and all. Tell me, what do you think about Corbyn and crew ditching their anti-EU principles and supporting the 'in' camp in the referendum, purely for political reasons?

IDS has clearly used disability cuts to stoke the fire for Brexit campaign. Given how it is turning into open offensive against Cameron & company , IDS was never going to keep his job within The Cabinet. I expect Gove; Villiers etc to eventually fall upon their swords as well.

I expect Gove; Villiers etc to eventually fall upon their swords as well. IDS hasn't 'fallen in his sword'. He resigned over a matter of principles relating to the cuts in disability benefits (he didn't take responsibility for those cuts) or to further the Brexit cause, whichever you wish to chose. 'Falling on their sword' is when an individual takes responsibility for a group mistake. Please remember that next time you are teaching in order that children can be taught correctly.
