Tim Yeo sacked?

Scotsman - Yeo 'Sacked' as Howard Refreshes his Shadow Cabinet: When he won the Tory leadership last autumn, Mr Howard sought to break the conventional mould by appointing a slimline Shadow Cabinet of 12 with a single member – Tim Yeo – to spearhead Conservative policy on both health and education.
