Lisa Nandy and John McDonnell in angry TV clash over Labour attack ad

Frontbencher tells left-winger: ‘I will not take lessons from you about civility’

Senior Labour MPs clashed over the party’s controversial attack ad claiming Rishi Sunak doesn’t believe in imprisoning child sex abusers in a feisty TV exchange.

Frontbencher Lisa Nandy got into a heated confrontation with left-winger John McDonnell – who served with her in Jeremy Corbyn’s shadow cabinet – on the social media ads.

Ms McDonnell told Ms Nandy“this is not you” during the row on ITV’s Peston, arguing that Labour was wrong “personalise” the issues.
