Gavin Williamson accused of telling senior civil servant to 'slit their throat' as more bullying allegations emerge
Earlier in the day, Mr Sunak was defying calls to sack Sir Gavin despite conceding his messages to Ms Morton were "not acceptable".
"I want to see the results of that, obviously, but I've been very clear that language is not right, it's not acceptable," he told broadcasters at the Cop27 climate summit in Egypt. "There's an independent complaints process that's being conducted at the moment. It would be right to let that process conclude before making any decisions about the future."Former Conservative Party chairman Sir Jake Berry said he informed Mr Sunak on the day he took the reins as Tory leader that Ms Morton had lodged a formal complaint over the messages.
Mr Sunak has insisted he was unaware of the details of the exchange at the time he brought Sir Gavin back into Government, in the vague role of minister without portfolio.
