Kelly to step down from cabinet


Gordon Brown on Ruth Kelly's departures

Transport Secretary Ruth Kelly is to step down from the government at the next cabinet reshuffle.

The mother-of-four said it was time to "step back and repay" her family for "the support that they've given me".

Asked about reports she was unhappy with Gordon Brown's leadership, she described him as a "towering figure".

2. In her case, do her family really want to spend much more time with her?
A religious loony; and one of our worst Ministers of Education EVER (and that includes the Tories).

Ugh.
