Home Office boss quits over 'campaign against him'
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-51687287
Mr Rutnam said he would take the Government to court after making allegations that Home Secretary Priti Patel had been “shouting a screaming” at Home Office personnel.
The most senior civil servant at the Home Office Sir Philip Rutnam has levelled bullying claims at Priti Patel. According to the BBC, Sir Philip, the permanent secretary at the Home Office, intends to sue the government.
It comes days after the home secretary and Sir Philip released a joint statement saying they were "deeply concerned" by various "false allegations" made about Ms Patel.
Allegations the pair dismissed included reports that Ms Patel, who has been home secretary since Boris Johnson became prime minister, bullied her staff and was not trusted by MI5 bosses.
Ms Patel has not yet commented on Sir Philip's statement.
In a statement given to BBC News, Sir Philip said: "In the last 10 days, I have been the target of a vicious and orchestrated briefing campaign."
He said allegations he had briefed the media against the home secretary was one of many "completely false" claims against him.
Sir Philip said he did not believe Ms Patel's denial of any involvement in the false claims, adding that she had not "made the efforts I would expect to dissociate herself from the comments".

U.K. Seen Selling Most Bonds Since 2011 Just as Rates Touch Zero
> Bond rally means investors may end up paying U.K. to borrow
U.K. bond issuance is set to surge to the highest level in nine years with Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s government expected to unveil a significant increase in budget spending.
Sales of gilts will rise to 166 billion pounds ($218 billion) in the 2020-2021 financial year, according to the median forecast of 13 bond dealers surveyed by Bloomberg.
The nation’s budget announcement on Wednesday coincides with an unprecedented bond rally that sent yields on short-term U.K. benchmark bonds below zero for the first time. If rates remain negative, investors may end up paying the government for the privilege of holding its bonds.
U.K. bonds have benefited from a worldwide flight to safety amid concerns over the fallout of the coronavirus, with yields on gilts maturing out to the next half century falling to record lows. That’s good news for Johnson’s Conservative government, which is seeking to increase spending in order to bolster post-Brexit Britain.

Well, budget day and its clear Corbyn is keen to ensure he gets his swansong out there...his response sounds like one of Sausages borefests.
'I shook hands with everybody,' says Boris Johnson weeks before coronavirus diagnosis
Boris Johnson said he was shaking hands with coronavirus patients just weeks before he tested positive for Covid-19. The prime minister confirmed he entered self-isolation on Friday 27 March. Early this month he said that people would be 'pleased to know' that the virus would not stop him greeting hospital patients with a handshake.

also the health secretary has caught it too.cons.2-labour nill.
Yeah, it's not 'being wise after the event' to say that a prime minister shaking hands with people actually in hospital with the virus was not a great idea.
Then he says that the important thing is to wash your hands...and adds about ten seconds later...'before shaking hands with them of course'
Imagine if it were Prayuth on video saying such a thing.
thegent, taxi etc would be ranting about the stupidity of 70 million people...
The place would be deluged.
They'd also be ranting if a Labour chancellor had put together a populist budget full of as many giveaways as we've just seen from the Tories. Betty would be in a rage. But as it is the slilence is deafening, and betty has been busy making a fool of himself elsewhere on the forum.
