Sir Gavin, who was sacked from both Boris Johnson and Theresa May's cabinets, was brought back into Government when Mr Sunak entered No10 last week. But according to Tortoise a complaint has been submitted regarding Mr Williamson's conduct to Tory headquarters. Wendy Morton, a former chief whip, has reportedly passed on details of "vile and threatening messages" she received in the dying days of Liz Truss's Government. A Tory spokesman did not comment on the allegation, but told The Mirror: "The Conservative Party has a robust complaints process in place". A friend of the Tory minister told Tortoise he "strongly refutes these allegations" and is "very happy to share all communications with the former chief whip with CCHQ if needed". Sir Gavin played a key role in Mr Sunak's leadership campaign and was previously sacked as Defence Secretary by former PM Theresa May in 2019 after an inquiry regarding a leak from the National Security Council.

After being crowned Tory leader and Prime Minister last week, Rishi Sunak appointed Sir Gavin as a Minister of State at the Cabinet Office.
