The son of the late Lord Janner has welcomed the resignation of Dame Lowell Goddard as chair of the government’s independent inquiry into child sex abuse.

Daniel Janner said he had been ready to call for the judge to stand down after she refused his request to adjourn the part of the inquiry relating to Lord Janner.

He described the investigation as “a legal Titanic, without a captain”.
