LONDON: UK deputy Prime Minister, Damian Green, has resigned from the cabinet after an investigation found him guilty of breaching the ministerial code.
According to British media, Damian Green quit after he was found to have made "inaccurate and misleading" statements about the pornography materials had been found on a computer in his Commons office in 2008.
Damian Green, one of Theresa May's closest allies, in his resignation letter apologised for his actions. While May expressed "deep regret" at his departure.
He had denied suggestions that he ever made unwanted advances to a female journalist, Kate Maltby, in 2015 and viewed pornography on a computer in his Commons office in 2008.
An official report by the Cabinet Office found that statements he had made about being unaware pornographic material had been found on his computer were "inaccurate and misleading" and as such fell short of the ministerial code.
