Dominic Raab’s staff were ‘scared to go into his office’, ex-Foreign Office chief reveals OLD

Staff working for Dominic Raab were “scared to go into his office” because of his “controlling” behaviour, a former head of the diplomatic service has revealed.

Simon McDonald has heaped further pressure on the deputy prime minister over his alleged bullying of his officials – saying he warned Mr Raab to change his approach.
