George Galloway targets Angela Rayner’s seat after he is sworn in as MP

Workers party leader says there are many places where it can win or make sure that Keir Starmer doesn't'

George Galloway has said he will target more seats in the next general election including the deputy Labour leader's after his swearing-in at Westminster following last week's Rochdale byelection victory.

Speaking outside parliament, Galloway singled out Angela Rayner's constituency of Ashton-under-Lyne, where she is defending a majority of 4,263, as an example of where his Workers Party of Britain, or a candidate backed by it, could cause havoc for her chances of re-election.
