Top civil servant in the Home Office, Sir Philip Rutnam, quits and says he intends to sue the government for constructive dismissal https://t.co/9m4hL9nUcp pic.twitter.com/U23fXTJnLTSIR PHILIP RUTNAM, the top civil servant at the Home Office, has quit his post and launched a blistering attack on Home Secretary Priti Patel.
“But despite my efforts to engage with her, Priti Patel has made no effort to engage with me to discuss this. But he made clear his anger in his statement on Saturday, which he read to the BBC outside an address in north London.He said he took the decision to quit “with great regret after a career of 33 years” and said he would be issuing a claim against the Home Office for constructive dismissal.
“I know many thousands of his colleagues will recognise the courage and integrity he is showing in doing so and will applaud his decision.” Various reports last weekend suggested Patel had clashed with senior officials, belittled colleagues and is distrusted by intelligence chiefs.
