Commenting as Sir Philip Rutnam announced he will leave the Home Office to sue the government, Liberal Democrat Home Affairs Spokesperson Christine Jardine said: “We need to be asking serious questions about the culture that is being created in the Home Office.
“The way these Conservatives are treating public servants and trying to undermine the rule of law is outrageous.
“The Tories are acting just like Donald Trump, putting ideology ahead of competence, and it’s the British people who will pay the price.”
