Rattled?

So Nick Boles is leaving the Conservative Policy Exchange think-tank to concentrate on his campaign to become Mayor of London. At the same time, Iain Dale has announced in a footnote that he is standing down as a trustee of the charity.

I'm sure it will come as a great disappointment to all the conspiracy theorists out there, but I haven't actually been able to attend a single Policy Exchange Trustees meeting for eighteen months due to diary clashes.

See, still the implication that everyone on the left who raised the issue of the Policy Exchange's charitable status is some sort of lunatic conspiracy theorist.

Personally I'd be more critical of a trustee who took eighteen months to realise that they couldn't commit to the necessary levels of support. That seems to be like the behaviour of someone who either places their image ahead of the charity's wellbeing
