"Cabinet resignations seem to matter a huge amount at the time. They scream from the front pages, they dominate the bulletins, they even generate some good jokes. My favourite about the Fox affair is that he actually wrote his resignation letter a week ago, but made the mistake of giving it to Oliver Letwin to hand to the prime minister. Dr Fox finally went on Friday only because it took that long for someone to fish his letter out of the park bin into which the ditzy Mr Letwin had discarded it."
