I'm not a Tory and can't stand Raab's stupid policies re prisons, immigrants etc but this is just another example of focussing on the wrong thing. Who cares if he bullies gormless civil servants? I reckon many need a bit of bullying. But like police, being done now for fooling about on Hampstead Heath (an old homophobe police trick). If he's a good minister, keep him. Like Boris, done for stupid parties. If he was a good PM (he wasn't) keep him. Or Starmer - if he is a decent politician, keep him (they'll get rid of him - just wait and see - for some stupid reason).

It's all part of superficialisation.

Nothing wrong with a little kick up the bum.

Quite apart from anything else - it doesn't work. The only people who care are those who want Raab (or any Tory) out. The Tory supporters get even more stuck in the support mode. "Why kick out a man who snapped at a useless idiot?". And those in the middle (or those who didn't like anyone (like me) stay equally unconvinced by all of them. If Ed Davey was any good he'd be standing up for Raab and saying "the problem is his lousy attitude towards people wanting to enter our country to make a success of our lives. Kick him out for that or vote him out wherever possible. And for muzzling independent judges. "You'll obey the Government?" - crap".

Depends who's giving it GM, and certainly not MY bum please!

Do old people even have bums?

The other aspect of all this is why Sunak and he felt he should resign?

Can we not let someone who has bullied have a second chance? A period to amend their ways and learn the difference between holding people to account robustly and bullying them?

I mean, he is totally crap with vile policies, but that is beside the point. Or this point: it should though be the point and what everyone is discussing.

We have such an unpleasant media and society now that thinks shouting loudest that one is against bullying (or insert what issue) is the only way to behave or heaven forbid you may be accused of supporting bullies, paedos etc, etc yourself. There is no space for a moderate tone any longer or forgiveness or second chances.

Thus Sunak & Raab are the latest just to go along with it all. It is so predictable, so boring.

Just drain the swamp and the globalists.
