Alun Cairns resigns from cabinet over rape trial allegations
The Welsh secretary, Alun Cairns, has resigned from Boris Johnson’s cabinet over a row about whether he knew of allegations that a former aide sabotaged a rape trial.
Cairns had been under huge pressure in recent days over the actions of Ross England, his former adviser, with the furore threatening to derail the Tory campaign in Wales.
