Presumably to spend more time with his laptop I'd say.

Let's see if David Davis is as good as his word.

Don't be daft. On the other hand, it could get very entertaining if he does.

[Samanfur]

Given how public he was when shooting his mouth off, it could get entertaining if he doesn't.

It is therefore with deep regret, and enduring gratitude for the contribution you have made over many years, that I asked you to resign from the government and have accepted your resignation.”

Sacked in other words.

Resignation conveniently timed to avoid Theresa May having to face any sticky questions at the final Question Time of the year. The Tories are probably hoping the public will have forgotten about it in a couple of weeks time.

The Brexit secretary let it be known that he would resign in protest were Green to be forced out solely on the basis of allegations by former Met officers, although he accepted that other factors could lead to Green having to quit as first secretary of state"

So there is some wriggle room there. Although if Green went for his misleading statements, what about Davis and his impact assessments?

Which charachter from Victorian horror fiction is going to replace him then?
