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.

In a letter to Mr Sunak, he said he would resign if the inquiry "made any finding of bullying whatsoever".

He said the inquiry "dismissed all but two of the claims levelled against me".

The report on the inquiry by senior lawyer Adam Tolley KC is yet to be published by the government.
