Viewpoint Special – John Hutton Resigns
Ian Beaumont reports on the breaking news of another resignation, in the midst of a Cabinet Reshuffle.
Breaking News: John Hutton Resigns
Well, we have the sixth resignation in 4 days. John Hutton, the Defence Secretary has resigned. It seems he will not be a part of the ongoing reshuffle. Whilst he is making it clear that in his mind, this has nothing to do with not supporting the Prime Minister Gordon Brown, the very fact that during a reshuffle, he decides that the time is right to leave government, is none the less, telling in itself. He was another Blairite supporter, and it seems to me that the links between the old Blair government and the current Brown government are slowly being torn away.
Stay tuned, we will update you on this blog as developments merit.
