For those following the saga with the Information Commissioner, and for everyone who has worked in a toxic technology environment, this is an important bit of transparency and leadership from DSIT SoS Liz Kendall

UPDATE ON THE INFORMATION COMMISSIONER

▶️ John Edwards resigned from his post as the Information Commissioner and Chair of the Information Commission earlier today, following an independent investigation that upheld multiple allegations made against him.

▶️ I have seen evidence of the vulgar and highly sexualised language that was used in his interactions with his staff and am extremely concerned that he continues to describe these incidents as misplaced humour, including on his social media post announcing his resignation. Such conduct does not belong in the workplace, least of all exhibited by the leader of an organisation.

▶️ Multiple women shared testimony to the investigator on feeling offended, shocked and uncomfortable following interactions with Mr Edwards. I am deeply grateful to all who came forward to share their experiences as part of this investigation.

Great stuff. ‘Bants’ is no longer acceptable as a reason for this behaviour!
