DOMINIC Raab has told an independent investigator that he has never bullied anyone, while slamming him repeatedly against a wall in the House of Commons.
Gripping Martin Bishop by the lapels, the deputy prime minister maintained he had never behaved in an intimidating manner, before giving him a wedgie and telling him to ‘F**k off, you little turd’.
Raab said: “I never bullied no one, right? Write that down. Go on, write it down. Or the next thing you’ll be investigating is, ‘Why are all my teeth on the f**king floor?’
“I treat my staff with respect. But if they fail to do their jobs there might be harsh words in the heat of the moment, or an unexpected blow to the back of the head with a half-brick I keep in a drawer.
“It’s all part of the rough and tumble of politics. This is Westminster, not the WI. And we’re all good friends once they regain consciousness.
“Now if you don’t tell those pricks I’m completely innocent, I’m going to give you a swirlie in the toilets – on a day when Corbyn’s been in there after one of his homegrown bean medley lunches, understand?”
Bishop said: “I’d like to say, for the record, that the bullying claims surrounding Mr Raab are unfounded. Now, if you’ll excuse me I need to phone my wife to send me some more dinner money.”
