for more. Was this Victoria mainline or Underground?

Lucky to be struck by a train and receive minor injuries. Couldn't
have been a slam door anyway!

Sadly, press reports in the last few hours suggest it was a failed suicide
attempt by the MP.

"Ruffley was known to have been devastated that he missed out on a post in
David Cameron's new cabinet due to the prime minister having to find room
for coalition partner Liberal Democrat MPs."


"Mr Ruffley was also said to have been humiliated by revelations during the
MP's expenses scandal where he came in for severe criticism for claims that
he had made."

It sounds like attempting suicide isn't the only thing he's not very good
at.
