Daily Mail accuses Angela Rayner of salacious behaviour in the House of Commons.

 


I can well understand that Angela Rayner feels insulted and demeaned by being likened to a piece of white working-class trash, by the Tory Daily Mail. They say she keeps opening and crossing her legs in Sharon Stone, 'Basic Instinct' style, to district priapic Boris Johnson on the front benches, in the House of Commons.

What I find less convincing, is that she says it's blatant 'classism', 'sexism', and 'misogynistic,' to have described her as a teenage single mother and a former care worker. If this is so, then why has Angela Rayner, been banging on about this, ad nauseum, for as long as I can remember?

In the ironically named, House of Commons, Angela Rayner is something of a rarity, if not a collectors item. She's one of few MPs to have come from a working class background and to have worked as a manual worker, and she should be proud of the fact. As an institution, the Palace of Westminster, is largely a racket for the middle and upper classes and hardly representative of the country at all.

Today, only 6 or 7% of Labour MPs have done working class jobs. In 1979, 40% of the Parliamentary Labour Party had done working class jobs.
