Lobbying group ‘run its course’ as top firms leave after Guardian revelations over alleged sexual misconduct
- Comment: As CBI faces an exodus, do we need something to replace it?
- Second woman claims she was raped by CBI colleagues
The Confederation of British Industry should disband after rape allegations led to an exodus of top firms from the lobbying group, business leaders said on Saturday.
One said the CBI’s “extraordinary culture” has made it “nigh-on impossible” for it to continue representing firms, while another said it has “probably run its course” after a “tsunami of resignations”.
