Dominic Raab Resigns as UK Deputy PM Amid Bullying Inquiry

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.

"Raab's Resignation Sparks Leadership Questions for Sunak"

Dominic Raab has resigned as justice secretary and deputy prime minister after an inquiry into allegations of bullying. The five-month probe, by a senior lawyer, was set up by Prime Minister Rishi Sunak after complaints about Mr Raab's behaviour as a minister. Mr Raab said two findings that went against him were "flawed" and "set a dangerous precedent for the conduct of good government". The report on the inquiry by senior lawyer Adam Tolley KC is yet to be published by the government.
