Bit of an open goal for headline writers.
Director General of CBI steps down amid probe into claims of 'sexual harassment' against female colleague: Tony Danker apologises and says he's 'mortified' for 'causing offence or anxiety' that was 'completely unintentional' Confederation of British Industry director general Tony Danker hit by complaints Among them was one from female worker accusing him of 'unwanted contact'
The CBI said it had looked into an allegation around Mr Danker's conduct in January but found that 'the issue did not require escalation to a disciplinary process'
'The CBI takes all matters of workplace conduct extremely seriously but it is important to stress that until this investigation is complete, any new allegations remain unproven and it would be inappropriate to comment further at this stage.'
Mr Danker apologised today on Twitter and said any upset was not intentional.
He said: 'It's been mortifying to hear that I have been the cause of anxiety to any colleague.
'It was completely unintentional and I apologise profusely.

Oh dear how sad, we will say a prayer for a lost soul. Maybe light a candle or whatever you are meant to do at such a fall from grace.

Well not completely true either, he voted remain and tried to get Sunak to deepen ties with the EU so like miss moneypenny or whatever her or his name is found out, he ain't exactly honest.

It doesnt matter who the DG of the CBI because as the CBI pretty much only represents big business it is always going to promote convergence with the EU.
