  1. They’re going to come back saying hes a deeply unpleasant man to work for, and Sunaks going to say some nonsense about how “while his behavior wasn’t perfect, he was a committed leader and personality conflicts meant people interpreted his behavior wrong so actually i’m going to keep forcing people to work with him” because Raab knows where all the Tory skeletons are and he will not go quietly.

  2. “So if you weren’t important, he’s absolutely awful, and then he’d pivot to being reasonable and affable – say with the PM or another senior figure.”

    I imagine that covers quite a lot of the tory party.

  3. He buggered up the Afghan evacuation by behaving like a petulant brat and refusing to talk to half his staff (who were vastly more experienced in these matters than him). People died because of his unprofessional behaviour. Another talentless liability that somehow manages to keep a senior ministerial position.

  4. He will be moved to the backbenches and then slowly shuffle his way forward as time goes on. He is not gone and the fact that he has spent so much time in the Cabinet means it is only a reshuffle or two until his ‘expertise’ is needed again and Sunak brings him back to the forefront of politics again.

  5. Dominic Raab ‘ruined people’s lives’ Think we all agree on that. The question is will he be held to account for it & when? He should be made to stand down until all this is cleared up, which is looking like it’ll be months, if not years. The guy is despicable…

  6. Nothing will come of it. It’ll state what everyone already knows, how much of a narcissist he is. No punishment. No fines.

  7. ….i appreciate people have bills to pay, but i am a bit disappointed no one has been able to say ‘enough is enough’ before now, and outed his behaviour.

    A leak, a public resignation, whatever.

    One of the problems is people have kept their mouth shut, because they know if they speak, they wont get another job working for a minister.

    And they quite like working for ministers, it seems.

  8. That’s incredible. After the botched privatisation of probation services, which had to be abandoned eventually, the Tories do this.
