She "was not supported as she should have been" by her officials before, during and after the committee appearance on April 25.
"In preparations immediately before the hearing, the home secretary asked 'Are there removals targets?' and was told 'No'. This led to her denial in the hearing," writes Sir Alex in an executive summary.
He adds: "I cannot establish how she was given this reply: the most likely explanation is crossed wires between her special adviser and her private office."

Priti Patel faces axe in reshuffle over ‘competence’https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/p...ence-csbxdggt3
The prime minister circled the wagons to protect Patel last week, rejecting an official finding that she had bullied officials and broken the ministerial code of conduct.
But multiple sources say he has had conversations about replacing her as home secretary when he recasts his cabinet in the New Year.
