The new Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden has said the resignation of Dominic Raab in the wake of a bullying probe was the "right thing" to do.

He told Sophy Ridge: ""What I can say though is that Dom promised that if there was an adverse finding against him, he would resign. I've worked with Dom over a number of years, particularly I remember the time when he took over from Boris [Johnson] when he was incapacitated.

"I know that Dom is a man of his word, and he resigned. As the prime minister said, I think that was the right thing to have done."
