Full list of companies that have pulled out of the CBI or putting memberships on hold

Some of the biggest companies in the UK have quit the Confederation of British Industry following a second rape allegation from a woman working for the business group.

She said she had no recollection of the rape itself but had described in detail the physical signs that led her to believe she was raped, and was later presented in the office with an explicit photograph. It is the second claim from a woman that she was a victim of rape at the organisation. In response, CBI president Brian McBride said: “The latest allegations put to us by The Guardian are abhorrent and our hearts go out to any women who have been victims of the behaviour described. While the CBI was not previously aware of the most serious allegations, it is vital that they are thoroughly investigated now and we are liaising closely with the police to help ensure any perpetrators are brought to justice.
