SIR Keir Starmer is surrounded by “lads” and has a problem with women, Rosie Duffield claimed yesterday.
The newly independent MP, who quit Labour on Saturday, accused the PM of operating a shadowy boys’ club inside No 10.

She also attacked Sir Keir for accepting freebies and said she felt grubby asking for campaign donations to get re-elected.
It came as Sir Keir was yesterday accused of using a second luxury pad owned by Labour bankroller Lord Alli.
Asked on the BBC if she thought the PM had a woman problem, Ms Duffield responded: “I’m afraid I do. I have experienced it myself.
“It’s very clear that the lads are in charge.
“They have now got their Downing Street passes. They are the same lads who were briefing against me in the papers and other prominent female MPs and I was really hoping for better but it wasn’t to be.”
Chancellor of the Duchy of Lancaster Pat McFadden said: “I see ministers turning up to work every day and what’s on their mind is how to stabilise the economy and get it growing again.
“That’s what the ministers around that Cabinet table are focused on.
“They believe in public service.”
