Keir Starmer has called for an end to the “misogynist” culture at Westminster after his deputy Angela Rayner was accused of trying to distract Boris Johnson with her legs.
Starmer told ITV’s This Morning there would be “zero tolerance” for such attitudes in his own party. According to the Mail on Sunday, some Tory MPs believe Labour’s deputy leader tries to distract the prime minister by “crossing and uncrossing her legs” during Prime Minster’s Questions.
Starmer said: “It is rank sexism, rank misogyny. She was really disgusted that all of her political attributes were put aside for this ridiculous, offensive story. “She shouldn’t have to put up with it but all women in politics shouldn’t have to put up with it.
