UK Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab has resigned from the government after an independent report found he had bullied officials. This is the third senior minister to resign over personal conduct in six months, damaging Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's bid to revive his Conservative Party's fortunes before local elections in May. Raab had no formal powers as Sunak's deputy but was a close political ally. The report found that Raab had acted in a way that was "intimidating" and "persistently aggressive" while he was foreign minister.
