Tulip Siddiq made a point of order in the House of Commons after Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch attacked Bridget Phillipson, again, "Kemi Badenoch called the Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson a spiteful class warrior" "And previously she's compared Bridget Phillipson to a gestapo officer" "Madame Deputy Speaker, I started out working in parliament as a teenager, and for 25 years of being involved in politics I have never seen the atmosphere here in parliament and outside quite so hostile and intimidatory, especially towards female elected representatives" "Madame Deputy Speaker, words matters and inflammatory language contribute to this hostility towards politicians, especially women" "Could I ask your advice whether the language that was used by the leader of the opposition today, towards the Secretary of State for Education, who is a woman who grew up in poverty, on a council estate, raised by a single mother, on free school meals, and worked her way up to Cabinet, is appropriate language to be used in the chamber" "Not only does this language contribute to hostility, it also puts off women, from coming into this very important profession"
