Andrea Jenkyns hits out at ‘classless’ Labour successor

Oh dear. It seems that all is not well in Leeds. Former Tory MP for Leeds South West and Morley, Dame Andrea Jenkyns, has taken to Facebook today to slam the ‘insensitivity’ of the constituency’s new MP, Labour’s Mark Sewards. It seems that cross-party relations are only, er, souring…

Jenkyns slammed her ‘classless’ successor for ‘gloating’ about his success, claiming he not only messaged her days after she lost her seat about office space, but actually turned up at her office and ‘upset’ her staff. Taking to social media to vent, Jenkyns fumed:

Today, my office manager has just rang me, Sewards has visited my office, my team are still there working on the casework handover. He turned up, walked in, arrogantly, gloating, and saying, he  is the MP, and he wants the furniture too (that I bought). He even said to my young girl in the office ‘Are you enjoying closing down the office?’ Making my team who have lost their jobs feel incredibly awkward and upset.
