Dominic Raab hits out at 'activist civil servants' after resignation [View all]

Former Deputy Prime Minister Dominic Raab has accused "activist civil servants" of trying to block the work of government, after his dramatic resignation over bullying claims.

An inquiry found he was "intimidating" and "aggressive" towards officials.

Mr Raab told the BBC he was sorry if he upset anyone but "that's not bullying".

He said there was a risk "a very small minority" of officials "with a passive aggressive culture" were trying to block reforms they did not like.
