(Picture: Stefan Rousseau/PA Wire; Isabel Infantes/AFP)RMT boss Mick Lynch has claimed he had a furious row with Tory minister Chris Philp off-camera after their testy exchange on the BBC this summer.
Lynch says then tech minister Philp told him to “f**k off” after they were on Newsnight together in June. Philp told us this morning he denies swearing at Lynch. The Union chief repeatedly called Philp a “liar” on air for claiming he had walked away from talks with politicians about strikes.
