Former British deputy prime minister Dominic Raab defended himself against allegations of bullying on Friday, following the release of an independent report accusing him of workplace intimidation.
Raab posted an angry resignation letter to his social media, arguing against the findings of the report, which said he had acted in a way that was “intimidating” and “persistently aggressive” while foreign minister.

Raab said in an interview that while he is sure he has “made mistakes over four and a half years,” he believes the threshold for bullying is too low.

“I strongly believe if the threshold for bullying is so lowered that picking people up on bad work, straightening out a negotiation where a breach of cabinet-set mandate has taken place, changing teams so we get better negotiations, so we deliver on victims, parole, human rights reform — if we can’t do those things then ultimately it will be the public that will pay the price.”

The five-month investigation by lawyer Adam Tolly into Raab’s behaviour heard evidence from government officials at three different departments. The report said Raab was insulting of work done by officials at the Ministry of Justice and was abrasive, though not deliberately.
