Well I happen to see it different to you. I saw the headline Cable resigns on the BBC news website.

He was deputy leader of the Lib Dems and has taken on an important role in the Con-LibDem Parliament.

I accept that he can't do both jobs and has resigned as deputy Leader.

However, surely that lowers his importance quite considerably IMHO.

If the Cons were to sack him, he no longer holds a senior position in his own party.

He has put a lot of trust in Cameron. Is that wise?

>>A pointless non-article about a pointless politician resigning from a pointless non-job.<<

I do not share your opinion and find your comments insulting to Cable. So Quack to you as well. :-(
