So, a coup for The Guardian. After publishing a list of the members of the male-only Garrick Club in much the same spirit as it might out members of the English Defence League, it has now got three members to resign. Simon Case, head of the Civil Service after telling a Commons committee that he only remained to force change in this “antediluvian” institution.
Sir Richard Moore, head of MI6, resigned after his outing in The Guardian was followed by “conversations with senior female colleagues”, and frankly if the head of the intelligence services can be browbeaten that easily, and doesn’t have the gumption to tell his colleagues where to get off, is he really right for his job? Don’t they have better things to do? I feel a little less safe knowing MI6 is in the hands of this weed.
