Groundhog Day for those who have a different view .
I don’t know if she ever felt unsafe or that was just suggested as a line for her as it worked well for a few of her former colleagues in previous years when they were trying to demonise their political opponents in the party. Nothing like suggesting the need for a police escort to garner press sympathy and deflect from the real issues of difference.

Anyway she dropped that idea long before the Labour conference and said instead that she was not attending because she didn’t want her views on trans rights to be a distraction from Kier’s big relaunch.

For what it’s worth (based on accounts of friends who campaigned for her in 2019) I don't think she is likely to defect to the blue rosette lot.
