Emily Sheffield has taken to Twitter to vent about Labour’s new pink van for women. Sheffield, who is the deputy editor of Vogue, claims that the van looks like its selling tampons rather than policies.

Harriet Harman was forced to defend the pink colour of the van after a number of women claimed it was patronising. ‘The reason why it has to be eye-catching is that there is a big hole in our democratic politics,’ Harman said earlier today.
