Working at Home Office like 'walking through mud'

Liberal Democrat MP Norman Baker has resigned as a home office minister, saying working in the department was like 'walking through mud'.

In his resignation letter to his party leader, Nick Clegg, Mr Baker said being the only Lib Dem in the Home Office had been 'particularly challenging' which he said a paper had likened 'to being the only hippy at an Iron Maiden concert.'

His party's deputy leader Malcolm Bruce talks to 5live's Phil Williams.
