Jacqui Smith is to quit as Home Secretary.
The Guardian just printed this on its online bulletin so there are no real details as yet (1.54pm, Tuesday) but I needed to post this even though I decided to take a break until the Euro-elections were over (for reasons of sanity, burnout, and my own Southampton moment yesterday). No such luck I'm afraid - not while the woman who started all this has finally done the decent thing and thrown the baby out with her dirty bathwater.
No doubt someone will make another Downfall parody about this but for the moment I'm off for a walk.
Gurgle.
