That bump you just felt was an unnamed Lisa Raitt staff member being thrown under the bus.
Interestingly, Lisa Raitt's constituency office manager was also apparently fired a few months ago, for reasons unknown. This is the same guy who really wanted to run as the Conservative candidate himself, but instead stepped aside to support Raitt when she was parachuted in.
I sure hope they get a decent severance package.
(BTW, allow me to be the first to dub this... Papergate.)
Whooee! I was watchin' QP an' Lisa just kept mouthin' the same response: "The person responsible resigned." What part of ministerial responsibility doesn't she understand. Raitt herself is the person responsible, not a 26 YO staffer.
