John Reid to set down

The Politics Show is on BBC at the moment and John Sopel is interviewing John Reid. Reid just said that he is going to step down in July from the cabinet. Interesting....obviously declaring to work 24/7 for the Home Office, demoralising the staff by declaring it 'unfit for purpose' and splitting it up is too much and he intends to step down. Maltheus quite likes John Reid, he's quite personable and a street fighter BUT he needs to stay on and sort out the mess which is the Home Office. Although me thinks it might be a case of jumping ship before pushed..
