ONE of the candidates in Labour's deputy leadership race has accused the allies of her rival of anonymously briefing against her.

Lucy Powell told Sky News’ Electoral Dysfunction podcast that Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson’s camp in the race to succeed Angela Rayner as Labour's deputy leader had engaged in underhand tactics.

Speaking to the same podcast, Ms Phillipson insisted the campaign had been “well-fought” and said she had also been subject to claims she was holding back on publishing guidelines about trans people for fear it could harm her place in the race.
