Another one bites the dust.

Miss Smith has signalled she will step down when Mr Brown reshuffles his Cabinet after this week’s local and European elections.

Her departure emerged as three more Labour MPs – including serving minister Beverley Hughes – signalled they will leave the House of Commons at the next election.

Who'd of thought that so shortly after launch that it would explode
so spectacularly. And along with it, the impervious hopes of the space
fantasy that kennedy made anything exceptional.

And now, the whole of the british left that has become a horrible trojan horse
for right wing authoritarianism and bankrupt kleptocracy - all under the
banner of the prime minister "brown" who is just a fucking asshole, plain and simple.

So, kaboom, the whole parochial government is doing a susan boyle... off to the priory with the wreckage... they're strutting their BNP credentials around pre-their
EU election (staggering loss):

I predict a general election soon. The public wants blood:

Labour in chaos as ministers jump ship

By George Parker, Political Editor

It leaves the impression that he is being forced to make changes because of resignations rather than carrying out what is expected to be a radical cabinet overhaul on his own terms.

Some of Mr Brown’s colleagues were urging him to carry out his cabinet surgery on Friday to end the sense of drift. Others said he was more likely to wait until after the European election results were announced on Sunday night.

Apart from Ms Smith and Mr Darling, questions hang over the future of Geoff Hoon, transport secretary, and Hazel Blears, communities secretary, who have also been damaged by Westminster’s expenses scandal.

Mr Darling on Tuesday insisted he was getting on with his job as speculation mounted that he would be replaced by Ed Balls, schools secretary, who was Mr Brown’s right-hand man during much of his time as chancellor.

Nothing like having some balls around for your right hand man... better irony
could not be designed.
