Ministers defend Attorney General after bill comments

As he faces the Cabinet for the first time since he described the Judicial Appointments Bill as a “dog’s dinner”, Mr Woulfe has been defended by ministers who say he should remain at his post.
It comes as the Association of European Journalists (AEJ), which hosted the lunch, apologised to Mr Woulfe for the breach of “Chatham House rules”, which means comments made are off the record.
