Businessman David Ross has quit all of his roles in the organisation of 2012 London Olympics.
It follows Mr Ross's resignation as a director of Carphone Warehouse in a scandal over the use of his shares.
Ms Jowell told the Commons culture and sport committee a replacement for Mr Ross would now be sought.
Mr Ross was on the board of the organising committee for London 2012 (LOCOG) as well as bodies overseeing the legacy of the Games and the distribution of National Lottery funding for the event.
He was London Mayor Boris Johnson's appointment to the board of London 2012, charged with making sure that the games did not go over budget.
Why the cunting fuck is this headlining the news? As far as I can see, Ross has committed a technical infringement, no-one has lost money, no-one has been harmed, and Ross has fallen on his sword.
Unlike Permatan Hain. Or Peter Mandelsnake. Or Trousersnake Blunkett. Or any other fucking politician, who can apparently do whatever they like without incurring the BBC's opprobrium. And who gives a fucking shit, anyway? It's the Olympics, for fuck's sake.
Could it be that the BBC is just pathetically grateful for something that isn't shining a bright light into the devious machinations and incompetence of the Labour Party?
Twats.

Did you notice the mention of king-confused himself - Boris? Old habits die hard and the BBC doubtless couldn't help a little dig at the tories.
