The sacked director general of the Confederation of Business Industry claims he has been made the “fall guy” for a wider crisis engulfing it.
Tony Danker, axed over allegations about behaviour towards staff, said: “Not only did they just throw me under the bus, they reversed the bus back over me.”
Mr Danker said the CBI cited four reasons – holding a “secret” karaoke party for 15 people, viewing Instagram accounts of CBI staff, sending non-work messages to staff, and inviting junior employees to lunch.
