"amazing what crackheads will do for £100." "i'm going to get her beat up." the chair of the local association has today written to me, expressing regrets and apologies for what he describes as the grave and unacceptable actions of their member, who has since been expelled. and i welcome that letter and that support. but it is a concern to me that there has been thus far no similar condemnation or sense of regret expressed by the national party. there is no place in society or in public life for threats and intimidation. let me, mr speaker, say this right no

one former cabinet minister, theresa villiers, says the allegations against ms patel are misogynisticnd i don't believe these allegations against priti patel. i think she's a highly—effective home secretary and i think whoever is making these briefings should stop it, because i think they're unfair and they're damaging. interesting that you say against women. you think there's an element of misogyny in this? yes, yes, i do. let's talk to our assistant political editor, norman smith. what's going on? i think what's going on is priti patel has arrived in the home office determined to push ahead at high speed and is coming into conflict with some civil serva nts coming into conflict with some civil servants who are raising questions and doubts, saying, have you thought about this, minister and do not need to check that. and she doesn't like it. she wants to move ahead with the government's agenda and is finding the question is, if you like, of civil servants a little constraining. that is now bubbling up constraining. that is now bubbling up into the public domain. is it misogyny? it's a
