Tories are 'quite scared of me because they don't often meet people like me', says Labour's Angela Rayner
Labour's deputy leader has said some Tories are 'quite scared of me because they don't often meet people like me'.
"We’re all parliamentarians and it’s about respecting the fact that we are all here to represent our constituents," she said. "We may have a difference of opinion, and that’s fine, but we generally rub along OK. "Most of the trolling is misogynistic – calling me a bitch and things like that," she said. “Or saying I’m thick because I haven’t been to university and can’t speak properly.
She revealed she had a 'whole unit' and two dedicated police officers dealing with her case, after she received a series of chilling messages last year. "Politics is about choices. With the rail companies, we have said that once their contracts are up we’d bring them back into public ownership and that’s a way of doing it.She continued: "If you are not getting value for money and are not delivering then we need a mechanism where local authorities are able to bring those services back in-house, to make the decisions, to improve the services locally and make them more accountable to local people.
