Andrea Jenkyns is Britain's new education minister, scraped from the Conservative Party's parlimentary barrel by Boris Johnson after some 50 ministers and aides resigned in protest at his latest scandal.

She must now explain her behavior to the House, colleagues insist.
In fairness, I'd be upset too if I had to go fishing in that climate.
