The House of Commons (British Parliament) 2009 summer recess lasted from 21 July 2009 to 12 October 2009. I emailed my MEP during that period and predicted the Minister for Europe would be sacked. On 13th October 2009, the day after the House returned, the sacking was duly announced in the Press.

The sacking of the Minister for Europe was not your average dismissal as the following extract from my book indicates:

My post that day contained a letter from MEP Glenys Kinnock. It seemed Mrs Kinnock and not Eluned Morgan MEP had stepped forward to deal with my issues. I was pleased about that development because Glenys Kinnock was a household name in Britain. I had seen her on television and heard about her for the best part of two decades.

Glenys Kinnock came to real prominence when her husband, Lord Kinnock, was leader of the Labour Party from 1983 to 1992. She was one of the first wives of a political leader in Britain to take a leading role in politics. She had been an MEP for Wales since 1994. During his US presidential campaign, Senator Joe Biden had famously plagiarised Neil Kinnock's speech in 1987 and since then, they had become firm friends. Barack Obama had recently picked Joe Biden to be his vice-presidential running mate in the race for the White House. Like the Blairs and the Clintons, when you have been in politics for a long time, I guess you get to know everybody. Glenys Kinnock knew Cherie Blair very well and quite likely Hillary Clinton, both of whom had helped Lady Meyer.
...
The position of Europe Minister had also been downgraded: the new incumbent wasn't allowed to sit at cabinet meetings; it was the first time in recent memory that the post wasn't held by a Minister of State;...

While the Baroness held the position of Europe Minister, the political elite could offer no excuses:

The post of Minister of State for Europe was seen as the most important outside of the full cabinet and it entitled the holder to attend cabinet meetings. Baroness Kinnock could indeed talk to Jack Straw and Gordon Brown and raise my issues within the most powerful circle of politicians in the land....Therefore, along with Chancellor Merkel, Secretary Clinton, ambassadors, the Prime Minister and the Lord Chancellor, we had the leader of the Conservative Party, the leader of the Liberal Democrat Party, a UKIP MEP, two British newspapers, a human rights group and two other national charities that had all been informed of illegal child abduction and Baroness Kinnock knew all about it. Consequently, they knew there could be no excuses whatsoever for the Baroness to do nothing or for the Prime Minister and the Lord Chancellor not to know my allegations had substance. Therefore, there were no excuses why leaders of the other main political groups, UKIP, Liberty or the Press couldn't ask difficult questions of the government, as you would expect in a functional democracy, yet there wasn't a murmur from anyone.

Her sacking has profound implications:

They were obliged to give Baroness Kinnock another Foreign Office ministerial job because her husband, Lord Kinnock, resigned after four-and-a-half years as head of the British Council due to a conflict of interests when she became a Foreign Office [Europe] minister in June. Baroness Kinnock, a long-time campaigner on African issues, took over the much less prestigious post of Minister for Africa because Lord Malloch Brown resigned. As Minister for Africa, my issues were not part of her remit and she wouldn't be attending regularly at cabinet meetings. So, that all worked out rather nicely.
The main question in the Press was an obvious one: if Baroness Kinnock was the right woman for such an important job four months ago, why was she the wrong woman now? Of her seventeen predecessors, only one had served less time than she did, but he was promoted to Defence Secretary. Her sacking was even more bemusing when you consider that Parliament had been in recess from 21 July 2009 to 12 October 2009: she had only been in office during a sitting Parliament for seven weeks!
Although (some of) the Press and the public were puzzled at Kinnock's demise, I was not; I called it correctly several weeks ago in my email to John Bufton MEP: “unless Glenys Kinnock has done something I don't know about, I can't see how she could remain as a cabinet minister....
As I thought it through, I realised the implications were profound: it meant Gordon Brown knew about my issues, had directly engaged in protecting his government because of it and must have been at least aware of the cover-up. It also meant that if the other political parties continued to do nothing, then they were aiding the government in the cover-up, which made no sense to me whatsoever. Why would the Conservatives, Liberal Democrats, UKIP, Liberty and the Press not want to kick up a fuss?

All the politicians, including the Baroness, will state her sacking had nothing to do with my case, but the circumstances strongly suggest otherwise. In a proper functioning democracy with a truly free and independent Press, the story should have been published to allow the public to make their own minds up, particularly as the General Election had to be called in a matter of months. But that never happened.
