Angela Rayner today vowed to defend the right to strike “as long as I have breath in my body” as she announced plans to undo a wave of Tory privatisation.
Labour ’s deputy leader won a standing ovation after an 18-minute speech at the party conference, where she reeled off a string of Tory scandals.
Promising the “biggest wave of insourcing for a generation”, she said before any service is contracted out, “public bodies must show that the work couldn’t be better done in-house”.
