Embattled Dominic Raab appeared to be in retreat today as he responded publicly to claims that he had launched an “abusive attack” on Gina Miller – and faced fresh accusations of racial insensitivity towards a BBC comedian, who backs Ms Miller’s version of events.
Asked to comment on Ms Miller’s shocking disclosure, first reported by The Independent, that he had called her “stupid” and “naive” during an “aggressive” encounter at the BBC, Mr Raab failed to deny explicitly that her account was accurate.
