Misogyny in politics (and indeed in the way it is reported) is nothing new, but that doesn’t make it any less unacceptable.
Why should female MPs have to put up with the sort of comments that are simply not used against their male contemporaries, and what on earth has gone wrong that a male political editor thought it was ok to write about Angela Rayner in the way that he did?
I raised the unpleasant and misogynistic article in the Mail on Sunday, about the Labour Deputy Leader, with the Speaker of the House of Commons on Sunday afternoon.
