    Hillary Benn to resign!

    I was listening to Sarah Kennedy this morning whilst in the shower and nearly dropped the soap! 

    She was doing the paper review and was talking about a possible labour Rebellion by front benchers over the third runnway at Heathrow and said,  "A third runway at heathrow is to be approved next month as Gordon Brown prepares to overule ministers within his cabinet.  But there could be some resignations.  Hillary Benn the environment secretary feels very strongly about the noise and air pollution".

    Surely we can't be that lucky can we?

    It does show that he is passionate. 

    But he lets his personal feelings influence his political life. 

    He has already promised us his personal feelings had nothing to do with his decision over the badger cull.

    Mixed feelings on this one. Can't get excited by Benn but another new minister could be too much to bear...

    It is one of the most important departments in government, not just for farmers but for the whole country and our future.  Especially if climate change is something we have to take seriously, yet nobody seems to have the accuman to do the job nor is interested.
