Rifkind has now resigned as the Chairman of the Intelligence Committee.
"I'm self employed. Nobody pays me a salary".
As a Conservative member of Parliament and (former) Chairman of the Intelligence Committee, Rifkind was fully employed by the British people who paid him via their tax payments the not paltry sum of approx £80k per year.
But he saw that as nothing with no binding commitment (I'm self employed - nobody pays me a salary).
Jack Straw has voluntarily withdrawn from the Labour Party and, I believe, has previously announced that he intends not to stand for re-election in May 2015.

The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
