Ainsworth on leaving frontbench politics

Ainsworth on leaving frontbench politics Former defence secretary Bob Ainsworth is following Jack Straw and Alan Johnson in not putting his name forward for Labour's shadow cabinet elections. In an interview with Total Politics he said  "I am going to return to the backbenches so that I can be freer about the type of issues I want to raise" Mr Ainsworth added he wanted to continue playing part in defence issues and had no plans to stand down as an MP.
