    Iain Duncan Smith quits over planned disability benefit changes - BBC News

    Can't be sure he's resigning on conscience (I'd like to think so, but considering he's presided over repeated attacks and plunderings on the poor and disabled something makes me doubt that), but either way this is a massive blow for the government and Osborne's leadership ambitions. Hoping this leads to Osborne's resignation tbh.

    Definitely nothing to do with Brexit, absolutely nothing at all.

    Whatever his motives, if it means the cuts to disabled people's benefits don't proceed, it's good.
