- Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab has resigned from the government over a report investigating bullying allegations against him
- He said he had promised to resign if the inquiry found evidence of bullying and it "is important to keep my word"
- But Raab says the inquiry dismissed all but two of the claims against him
- And he hits out at what he called its flawed findings, saying it sets a "dangerous precedent for the conduct of good government"
- Prime Minister Rishi Sunak, who received the report yesterday, is yet to comment
- Complaints into Raab's behaviour from several civil servants were investigated by senior lawyer Adam Tolley KC
- Colleagues of Raab, not involved in the inquiry, have said he could be "pretty belittling" and that he made a member of staff cry
- Dozens of people, including Raab himself, gave evidence to the inquiry
