Rishi Sunak needs to speak out against the “torrent of invective against the civil service” unleashed by Dominic Raab or risk a toxic environment in Whitehall, the former head of the UK civil service has said.
Lord Kerslake said Sunak needed to publicly reject the narrative that complaints of bullying, upheld against Raab in an official report published on Friday, are “all about snowflake millennials and a fifth column in the civil service, and the idea that the civil service are working to bring down ministers they don’t like”.
