Raab Will Be 'Toast' At End Of Bullying Probe, Says Source

A senior Cabinet Office official told colleagues that Mr Raab is "toast" when the process concludes later this month, it has been reported. Officials close to Adam Tolley KC's probe are said to have been "shocked" by some of the claims - including staff being sick before meetings with Mr Raab and regularly left in tears.

The lawyer is now expected to finish the inquiry and publish his conclusion before parliament's Easter recess on 30 March. It comes as Mark Serwotka, general secretary of PCS civil service union, said Mr Raab should "step aside" from his cabinet roles or be suspended - until the investigation into alleged bullying has concluded.

Mr Serwotka told Sky's Sophy Ridge on Sunday: "While Dominic Raab is going through a process, we know that Priti Patel was found to have bullied civil servants in the Home Office yet she got away with hardly a sanction."
