The former Minister of State said the allegations against him were “becoming a distraction for the good work this government is doing”.
In his resignation letter, Sir Gavin Williamson told Rishi Sunak: “As you know, there is an ongoing complaints process concerning text messages I sent to a colleague.“Since then, there have been other allegations made about my past conduct. I refute the characterisation of these claims, but I recognise these are becoming a distraction for the good work this government is doing for the British people.
Williamson faces a series of inquiries into his conduct as fresh allegations emerged about his “unethical and immoral” behaviour.
