Ruth Kelly

"Kelly to step down from cabinet"

Well, hats off to her for pissing on The Goblin King's chips a few hours after his speech, but isn't her excuse the most pathetic you've ever heard?

The mother-of-four told the Labour conference it was time to "step back" from politics and put her family first.

It is broadly agreed that it is babies and young children who need their Mum's undivided love and attention most (up to age 2, 3 or 4 according to personal views). Her kids are aged between 4 and 11. So hasn't she left this career break a bit ... er ... late?

F***ing bitch.
