one thing that gavin was...resh face. but, yeah, it's not easy to navigate this, but he has chosen a strong team and i think it is a good cabinet. that is the case for the defence from the education secretary. i reckon the charge that rishi sunak is likely to face today at prime minister's questions is that it shows weakness that he had to bring in people like gavin williamson and the home secretary, in trying to bring in different wings of his party and show conservative unity, he has sacrificed some of the integrity that he promised when he took over in number ten. i am sure that he will say that that is not the case, that he wanted to bring in all sorts of talents to his top team. but a couple of weeks into the job, we have a resignation from rishi sunak�*s cabinet and big questions about his judgment. joining me now is caroline slocock, director of civil exchange and former private secretary at number 10. thank you forjoining us, bringing in preference talents from different wings of the party, bringing in s

gavin accepts that he shouldn't have said these things that and he regrets it and we should all treatat was not the case. it was no secret that gavin williamson and others indeed didn't enjoy a good relationship with the chief whip at the time. it was not the case, though, that the prime minister saw the detail. interesting there, 0liver dowden saying the prime minister was aware of a complaint but he didn't know the detail of all of this. we have also heard this morning from justine greening, a former conservative politician, was a cabinet minister, sat around the cabinet table with sir gavin williamson and here is what she had to say about what's come out. this is the third time, under the third prime minister that gavin williamson has been generating bad headlines, one way or another. the texts he sent to the chief whip were unacceptable and rishi sunak doesn't have the bandwidth for this kind of negative publicity when he's building up towards a really important event on the 17th of november, the budget. so, it's unacceptable but it is hugely unwelcome for the government to have t

denied by sir gavin.though the specific language has not been denied by sir gavin overnight. add into the mix that the complaint we heard at the weekend about whatsapp messages sir gavin had sent to the former chief whip wendy morton had been referred to the conservative party. that process does not seem to be going anywhere quickly so it has been referred to the independent body that governs the rules on bullying in parliament. there is a number of different allegations and investigations going on. number ten says this is all really serious but it continues to have faith in sir gavin. officials who have worked with sir gavin have contacted the bbc to say they have had different experiences and never experienced him being a bully or doing anything that would be considered intimidation but what will worry number ten is there seem to be more people prepared to come forward with stories about sir gavin and many conservative mps are increasingly frustrated by how this has all panned out, and frustrated that t

without gavin newsom's name. i love to hear michael's opinion on this, but from from a conservative standpoint, you heard in number of democrats on the other side, including democrats like a o c say when prompted and asked about biden's chances of running say, i don't know. i don't have a position. i have no idea what i'm going to do. so that prompts the question. it makes you look, you know, towards the gets towards the back up the political spectrum for the democrats. you're looking at gavin among everyone else and he's out there going to different states, you basically trying to solidify his his reign on issues like homelessness, which i think he's unfortunately failed. but i think he's positioned himself so that he is definitely a part of any discussion about who's running in 2024, even though we have subzero interest. >> as as you said, classic thing david. i think if your fox news you want gavin newsom running, you want the pictures of the homelessness situation in san francisco. you want to talk about 60,0

sir gavin denies bullying. he sent to the former chief whip wendy morton. our political correspondent jonathan blake is at westminster. iam sure i am sure the government were hoping that these various claims against gavin williamson would just fade away, but they have not. there have been more today. what has been the reaction in downing street? interesting this afternoon, down a street is made clear it is conducting its own inquiries into gavin williamson's conduct —— downing street. there are as you say a couple of processes under way after the former chief whip wendy morton made a to parliament's independent planes and grievance service, the bullying watchdog, effectively, but that investigation took make money once and there is also an internal conservative party process which is under way —— took make money months. that is all a bit opaque. we do not know what that will involve, so they want to be mindful of the fact that they will be seen on the front foot and making their own inquiries, downing street sa

as we said, gavin williamson has denied these allegations.und the language that is exchanged between ministers and civil servants, who are effectively working together closely on an ongoing basis? what expectation is there around language? presumably, there is some pretty robust language that might fly around, but where should the line be drawn? i think it�*s very clear in the ministerial code, which covers specifically this issue and indeed in his introduction to it, borisjohnson said there should be no bullying by my ministers. so it is pretty clear. it�*s all about whether or not you have isolated incidents where people get angry. it�*s a very intense environment, there is a lot at stake. 0r whether what you have is a systemic bullying and undermining of civil servants. i think that�*s the accusation that is now being made against sir gavin and indeed was made against priti patel and subject to an investigation. so the rules are really very clear. the code is perfectly fit for purpose. its application needs to be done and done quickly here

gavin williamson, messages emerged over the weekend of gavin williamson texting wendy martin, who wase way seats had been dished out for the queen's funeral, there was a lot of swear words in there, a lot of anger from there was a lot of swear words in there, a lot of angerfrom mr williamson, some people think there were some implicit threats when he said there was a price for everything that miss martin was doing, and there have been those questions over whether that was appropriate conduct, clearly a lot of people think that that was not appropriate, and the question the prime minister is now facing is whether he should have acted on those warnings he was given about mr williamson's conduct, and if you add into the mix what we've heard about the reappointment of the home secretary, given her e—mail use, the use of private e—mail accounts to send official government business and those questions about whether she did enough to make sure the government was complying with the law when it came to rehousing asylum seekers and migrants, it does just add up to this picture which is pretty u

they claim sir gavin "deliberately demeaned and intimidated them". time to "slit your throat" and at another to "jump out of the window". in a statement, sir gavin says he strongly rejects the allegations and has enjoyed good working relationships across government. he says no specific allegations have ever been brought to his attention. but this does put fresh pressure on pm rishi sunak — over why sir gavin was appointed to his currentjob. labour's shadow home secretary yvette cooper believes the row calls rishi sunak�*s judgment into question. it has become clear that he knew of this further complaint before he reappointed gavin williamson to the cabinet. we've also got these further allegations that have emerged, and further complaints as well, and of course, remember that gavin williamson was himself sacked from the cabinet by theresa may for leaks from the national security council, but rishi sunak has reappointed him back into the cabinet office, the very department that has responsibility for the national security council. in both cases, this

sir gavin resigned, he was not pushed by number 10. gavin into cabinet in the first place. when he knew there had been a complaint from the former chief whip, wendy morton, about sir gavin, when he knew that some conservative mps had concerns about sir gavin's conduct in the past. then there is that question about why it took so long for the sir gavin to be removed from government and why he was not sacked. it's really interesting that in the letters they exchanged last night, rishi sunak talked about how sad he was that sir gavin was standing back from the government. some will question why there wasn't a sacking. why is sir gavin wasn't told to go by the prime minister, given some of the allegations that he was facing. labour might reckon that all of this just shows the prime minister is weak, that when he put his cabinet together, he was desperate to give —— get different parts of the party around the table, and to do that he sacrificed some of the integrity he promised when he stood there a fortnight ago. i wouldn't be surprised if

gavin said he won't only not run but he's team biden.e not only beat trump once but he will beat him again. i hope he runs, i'll enthusiastically support him. why is he supporting him like he has a trunk full of pan teen samples? could it be he wants to replace cackling cam for running made or is he playing the long game like the zodiac killer? could it be he's sticking it out as california gov for another term to then launch a presidential bid of his own when the time is right? gavin knows something we don't besides the perfect hair gel to moose ratio. either way 2024's going to be a wild ride especially if sleepy joe steals his car keys back from dr. jill. joe, what say you? >> no, no, no. look. newsome's not going to run. he knows everybody's got a job to do. his job is to ruin california so bad that everyone moves to texas, turns it blue. no, i've got to make a house call. hey, let me smell your head. >> who's that? >> greg:. >> greg: charlie you have a keen political intellect. you see through the miasma of confusion. >> charlie: mi

about how gavin newsom called against me. the normal people in hollywood, i go somewhere and they look both ways and they say i work in hollywood and i can't let anyone know how conservative i am but i voted for you. i was on -- at home and it was a scout locator and said we would like to use your property for the food. so we set up the deal. the catering service had comes over -- head came to me and we start having a conversation. he was so far away that would couldn't have been heard by anyone. six months later he called me and said he hadn't worked since then. they found out i like you and i haven't worked since then. i can give you story after story. there was show, a best judge show ever. the guy that designed my set, it was a beautiful set. he was so gifted the rnc asked him to design their set for their convention that year. and he did. he told me he didn't work for two years. he said i am gay, left-wing, democrat but because i worked on that set, they thought i was republican and when i told him i wasn't they thought

but gavin newsom, remember the french laundry guy.hat saw leaving texas and going to florida. >> steve: the congressional seat as a result. >> exactly, exactly so i don't think there is anything to worry about. i think on a more serious note is an open seat. they don't want an open seat. they don't care if he is 80 or don't remember appear they are doing it right now with other people running the white house. it is not really president biden treatment the borders czar kamala harris. it is susan rice and the obama's running the white house right now. so maybe they are going to gamble that but i don't believe it. i don't believe they will. i think it is going to be to their detriment. >> steve: yeah, jason, this is the moment the midterms out of the way and everyone looking to 2024. it strikes me that when you see job don't like democrats talking to the pendants come i get the sense none of them expect biden to go through with it. >> yeah, hey, run, go, run. go for it. you think you are going to do it. i think it is great. i don't think

but gavin newsom has defied that and pushed a messaging that is more kind of on the -- kind of on his tiptoes, pushing into democratic messaging rather than being on his heels, reacting to what republicans were saying. i think that defined his style in his embrace of this proposition kind of fit that and it ended up working really well statewide to drive out democratic votes. if you google democratic politician, you are going to find people wearing pink lasers and jackets and pants and really embracing the issue of abortion around the state. >> i agree with paul on a number of points. i want to bring a couple as well -- unlike other governors, gavin newsom is probably in the most blue state in the union. his reelection was a foregone conclusion. he ran one of the most orthodox if not the most unorthodox gubernatorial campaigns for reelection i've ever seen. he basically didn't campaign. he didn't camp in california. he spent most of his time doing ads in texas or speaking on the national stage. in other words, bringing forth the idea of the democratic ideals. it was able to do that be

biden flew out a campaign with gavin newsom. barack obama cut a commercial for gavin newsom.lizabeth warren cut a commercial for him, harris made comments, nancy pelosi did. they all said the same thing. stop republican takeover. never said gavin newsom is doing a great job on crime or a great job holding down the state in are cody and way, gavin newsom is doing a great job with schools that rank at the bottom. gavin newsom is doing a great job tracking people to california when for the first time people are leaving california and taking tax dollars with him. can think of anything he has done right and nobody tried to defend his record. they said don't let republicans take over because republicans are unpopular in california, outnumbered 3 to one and that is how they succeeded. he wouldn't the bait me. i would ask reporters to talk to him and let's debate the issues and they never did and he never did. when i got into the race, recall side, he was scared and called out the dogs, all this money came from the unions, from hollywood, snoop dogg even tweeted against me though he
