Key ally of Rishi Sunak says alleged comments by Cabinet Office minister would be ‘utterly unacceptable’
Gavin Williamson is under fresh pressure over his behaviour towards colleagues, as a key ally of the prime minister said no one was “unsackable” and it was “utterly unacceptable” if the Cabinet Office minister had told a former senior civil servant to “jump out of the window” and “slit your throat”.
The Guardian reported on Monday that Williamson, who was brought back to the cabinet by Rishi Sunak last month, allegedly told a senior civil servant to “slit your throat” in what they claimed was a bullying campaign while he was defence secretary.
