Dominic Raab has resigned as Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Secretary.
Mr Raab has been the subject of a lawyer-led inquiry into bullying allegations in recent months. The report from that inquiry was expected to be published yesterday but that did not happen as Prime Minister Rishi Sunak deliberated over what action to take against his number two.
The Justice Secretary has always denied bullying staff after eight separate formal complaints were made about his behaviour as a minister. Senior lawyer Adam Tolley KC was appointed by the prime minister to investigate the allegations in November
