Miss Patel has also been accused of bullying her private secretary during her time as International Development Secretary. A senior official at Dfid has claimed there was a 'tsunami' of allegations of abuse by officials in her private office.

One former senior figure in the department told the Mail yesterday that she had 'harassed' her private secretary to the point where he was eventually signed off sick with a stress-related condition and asked for a transfer to another department.

And she was spoken to about her conduct several times in the Home Office.

3 departments. A tsunami of complaints.

The common thread is Priti Patel.
