U.K. Culture Secretary Maria Miller resigned from the cabinet after six days of pressure from the media, the opposition and members of her own Conservative Party over her handling of an expenses probe.
Prime Minister David Cameron, who had resisted calls to replace Miller, said in his reply to her resignation letter he was sorry she was quitting, while accepting her decision. She’s the sixth cabinet minister to resign since Cameron took power in 2010.
