Andy Coulson has resigned as Downing Street 'Director of Communications'.

David Cameron says he is very sorry to see him go but will the News hereon be about David Camerons judgement in hiring him?

Andy Coulson says he resigned because he couldn't give his job 110% and it was affecting his family!

No doubt the next 24/48 hours will bring some 'Cameron bashing' from the Tabloids but on Coulsons statement above, 'I can't give 110%' ............can anybody?

110% is not achievable so why do they say it?

I think the Downing Street Coalition is in big trouble if we consider the recent resignations generally.

The Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne has just used the same term 110%....How can anybody give more than 100%?

No wonder his figures don't add up! lol

You mean the VULCAN? ex banker, born in a council house in Brighton and led the conservative opposition against the introduction of the 'minimum wage'. I dont think so Ron, the position requires that the postholder deals with the Press and Media, they will have a field day.

it seams a 'fresh' storey comes out of Number 10 every day, the media must be spoilt for choice, which to print (talk about a banana skin leadership!). On the other hand they may be master-minding the whole thing, you know what I mean, feed the rats a mixture of food and slip in the poison while they're distracted, lolWink
