The BBC understands there has been no decision about appointing someone else to the role of Independent Adviser on Tackling Violence Against Women and Girls. Labour's shadow home secretary Yvette Cooper called Ms Ali's decision "damning for Suella Braverman"."It shows how weak Rishi Sunak was to appoint her. More chaos at the heart of this Tory government."More on this story
