Karen Bradley's departure as Northern Ireland secretary comes as no surprise to many.
As she leaves, the return of devolution at Stormont seems further away than when she accepted the job 19 months ago.
She has also infuriated survivors of historical abuse, enraged some Troubles victims and was lampooned for her lack of understanding of Northern Ireland voters.
So what went wrong for Karen Bradley? Find out more here.

Tory deal with DUP must be 'refreshed and renewed"published at 10:00 British Summer Time 25 July 2019
DUP deputy leader Nigel Dodds says the confidence and supply agreement between his party and the Conservatives needs to be "refreshed and renewed" after Boris Johnson became prime minister.
The DUP has propped up a minority Conservative government since the 2017 general election, when it agreed the deal with Mr Johnson's predecessor Theresa May.
Mr Dodds tells the BBC: “It is effectively a new government so a lot of the things we agreed two years ago have run their course so we want to see what the plans are going forward.”
