Angela Rayner on that vape picture: 'It was put out there to shame, but the public stood by me'
Angela Rayner has hit out at attempts to shame her and portray her as a chav in the right-wing press.
The senior Cabinet minister said an image of her vaping on a kayak in Hove last summer - just weeks before her resignation from Keir Starmer's Cabinet - was "put out there to shame me" but backfired.
Appearing on The Mirror's new Youtube show Sense Check, Ms Rayner said she had been out to celebrate after youngest son's GCSEs at the time. She said: "I had a vape and there was an iconic picture of me.

You should run a competition, blogger. What sort of photo could best celebrate her successful financial manipulations with her disabled child's trust?
You can take Ange out of chavland but you can't take the chav out of Ange.
An overweight woman slouching in a too tight bra, wearing a vest two sizes too small? What can go wrong? Of course, the majority of people would see that photo and think that that woman is just the person to be a government minister.

James - that's it, she doesn't really try either. Or maybe she does, but that would be no better.
Penseivat - yes, obvious government minister material. The photo could go all over the world too - imagine the international sarcasm.
