London – Departmental Minister Gavin Williamson has resigned after being accused of insulting colleagues and threatening staff. Williamson’s resignation became the first crisis of Rishi Sunak’s cabinet in Britain after only a few weeks. The Prime Minister, who has accepted the resignation, will give an explanation in this regard to the Parliament today.
This is not the first time complaints have been made against Gavin Williamson’s abusive behavior towards staff and fellow MPs. Similar complaints have been raised against him before. He has been accused many times of being rude to his fellow MPs and fellow employees. Meanwhile, the revelations of a senior civil service officer also came out yesterday.
It was alleged that Williamson had shouted at him that he would “cut his throat” while he was the defense minister. With this, things got out of hand. As the Prime Minister did not come forward to justify such action, Williamson had no other option but to resign.
This is the third time Gavin Williamson has been out of the cabinet. Senior leader Gavin Williamson is a former defense minister in Theresa May’s cabinet and education minister in Boris’s cabinet.
He was sacked by the Prime Minister on allegations related to the leak of some documents during his tenure as Defense Minister. The reason for Boris’s exit from the cabinet was due to irregularities in the conduct of A-level exams during the Covid era. Williamson tendered his resignation to the Prime Minister, reiterating that he would prove his innocence in the allegations.
