'The Tablet's' Damian Green

British politician and first secretary to the cabinet Damian Green resigned yesterday evening.

He is a lifelong friend and colleague of Theresa May.

Green has been embroiled in alleged scandals for sometime, including downloading pornography on his House of Commons computer.

Again, the words of Enoch Powell come to mind - all political careers end in failure.

Some weeks ago The Tablet listed Damian Green as one of Britain's top influential Catholics.

It was an odious exercise.

Far too often the church seems to court favour of people in high office. Then again, it gives anachronistic titles to its own managers.
