Angela Rayner describes Boris Johnson as ‘terminally out-of-touch’ after reports he took private jet to Blackpool

Tameside MP Angela Rayner has described the Prime Minister as ‘terminally out-of-touch’ after it was reported he used taxpayers’ money to fly to Blackpool in a private jet.

Boris Johnson visited the seaside town last Thursday (June 9) to give a speech at Blackpool and The Fylde College. During the appearance, he spoke of his plans for levelling up and to help first-time house buyers.

He also made a series of promises over cost-of-living measures as he mentioned plans to tackle "increases in the cost of food, the spooling digits on the petrol pumps, energy bills growing seemingly ever larger".
