Angela Rayner MP
The MP talks about her childhood and dismisses the idea of being the next Labour leader
She has had a remarkable political ascent; elected an MP in 2015 Angela Rayner is now shadow education secretary.
Becky Milligan went to her constituency in Ashton-under-Lyne for the latest installment of her ‘At Lunch With’ series.
The Labour MP discusses life growing up on a council estate, how being a carer changed her from being a rebel to respecting those in authority and how being told she could be a possible leader of the Labour Party feels "ridiculous... for now, but maybe one day".
