Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer has called for an end to the "misogynistic" culture at Westminster after he slammed reports made about his deputy Angela Rayner in the Mail on Sunday.
The Ashton-under-Lyne MP was accused by an unnamed Tory MP of trying to distract Boris Johnson at Prime Minister's Questions by crossing and uncrossing her legs on the Labour front bench. The paper likened the claims to a scene from the 1992 erotic thriller Basic Instinct and said she was trying to put the PM "off his stride."
In response to the story, Sir Keir told ITV's This Morning there would be "zero tolerance" for such attitudes in his own party. "It is rank sexism, rank misogyny," he said.
