Rosie Duffield Quits Labour, Criticizes Starmer's Leadership

Duffield accuses Prime Minister of misogyny and accepting inappropriate gifts, highlighting deeper issues within the Labour Party.

Rosie Duffield resigned from the Labour Party, citing Keir Starmer's 'problem with women' and a culture dominated by 'lads' in No 10.
Duffield's resignation letter condemned the acceptance of expensive gifts by Starmer and senior ministers, calling it 'sleaze' and 'nepotism'.
She criticized the Labour government's retention of the two-child benefit cap and cuts to winter fuel payments, labeling these policies as 'cruel and unnecessary'.
Duffield's departure follows long-standing tensions over her stance on trans rights and her criticism of the party's handling of Diane Abbott's suspension.
Labour minister Pat McFadden rejected Duffield's claims and defended the party's focus on public service and policy goals.
