Rishi Sunak has failed to give his backing to Sir Howard Davies, the embattled chair of NatWest Group, following the row over Nigel Farage’s bank account.
The prime minister was asked on Thursday whether he supported Davies remaining in place at the bank, after a dramatic 48 hours during which its chief executive, Dame Alison Rose, resigned after admitting to being the source of a BBC story about Farage.
