Having been in the Shadow Cabinet or the Cabinet since 1997, the leader of the House of Lords Tom Strathclyde has just announced his resignation. Apparently he wants to pursue other interests. You have to wonder why the change of heart given the recent reshuffle. Intriguing… 

UPDATE: And the Dear Tom from the PM:

It may be the first day back at school, but odd to resign on relaunch day.

UPDATE II:

Lord Hill – the minister who tried to resign at the last reshuffle – now promoted by Cameron to the Cabinet in latest relaunch shambles

Hill was bored of education, not life, if Guido remembers correctly…
