Letter to the UK cabinet office regarding Jeremy Hunt.

I’d like to register my discontent, as a British citizen, at the behaviour of Jeremy Hunt and his team in their communications with News Corp while he was making a decision on the BSkyB deal.
In a predictable move, Jeremy Hunt’s special adviser Adam Smith has today resigned following yesterday’s revelations and cache of emails in an attempt to shift blame away from the minister. It is an insult to the general public’s intelligence to suggest that the minister had no knowledge of his departments communication with News Corp.
Even if it were true that he had no knowledge of it, however, he would still be in breach of article 3.3 of the ministerial code which says: “Individual ministers will be accountable to the prime minister, parliament and the public for their actions & decisions in respect of their special advisers.”
Furthermore, it is completely unacceptable that given the revelations, Lord Leveson should still report to the secretary of state for culture, media & sport on his enquiry.
In conclusion, Jeremy Hunt is not fit for the job & should be removed immediately.
Sincerely,
