France's environment minister Francois de Rugy handed his resignation following a series of reports by an investigative website about his whopping expenses on private dinners and renovations to his ministry residence. Rugy as well wrote a post on his Facebook, saying he handed in his resignation to the PM because the 'effort required to fight the accusations' meant he could no longer carry out his duties “peacefully”.
