Watch: Richard Madeley called out for ‘misogynistic’ Angela Rayner remark

"This isn’t Grease 3 - Cruel Rider, you absolute poundshop Partridge."

Another day, another Madeley mishap. No surprises there.

This time it was over comments regarding Angela Rayner.

During today’s Good Morning Britain, Madeley sat down with the Labour leader Starmer to ask him to respond to reports he was “sidelining” shadow chancellor Angela Rayner after she referred to Conservatives as “Tory scum”.

The Labour leader denied the claims, saying that they were “not true”.

“So she’s still your best girl, is she?” the presenter then asked, with the Labour responding that her absence from politics had been due to a personal bereavement rather than being sidelinded by Labour.

“Anyone defending Richard Madeley’s use of ‘best girl’ about Angela Rayner… Do you think there’s a penguin’s chance in hell he would have said ‘best boy’ and not something like ‘best man’ or ‘top guy’ if the deputy leader had been male?” tweeted activist Femi Oluwole.

I'm delighted to say I'm not in the Madeley fan club. In fact the smarmy git makes my skin crawl. Surely GMB can find a presenter who doesn't get up peoples hooters?

Rayner holds an important political role. It’s completely unprofessional when discussing her political career. This is not being used as a private term of endearment. Madely’s use of it was condescending and patronising.

BEST GIRL? She’s the Deputy Leader. And that’s what Keir Starmer should have pointed out.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
