In his resignation letter, Sir Gavin Williamson vowed to clear his name of wrongdoing - and said he 'refutes the characterisation of these claims'.
The prime minister's judgement is being questioned after it emerged that he appointed Sir Gavin to a senior role despite being aware of an investigation related to his behaviour.
While Lib Dem deputy leader Daisy Cooper said:"This should be the third and final time Gavin Williamson is forced out of the cabinet." "His only talent is bullying. It was a mistake for Rishi to give him a job. More people will be happy if he goes than if he stays."
