Labour MP used husband’s fake military claims to boost campaign for seat
A LABOUR MP used her husband’s fake military claims to campaign for her seat.
Sureena Brackenridge, promised “a fresh start” in a leaflet sent to voters before she was elected in Wolverhampton North East in July.
In it, she also boasted: “We’re a family that knows what public service means”.
A source said: “Sureena profited from her husband’s lies.
“I was so wound up after reading The Sun’s article I had to find a photo I took of the campaign leaflet.
“It is sickening to say the least.
“If voters knew about the lies, would they have ever voted for Labour?”
Mrs Brackenridge has been contacted for comment.
The Sun revealed yesterday that Wolverhampton councillor Mr Brackenridge had been accused of exaggerating his military service.
The Walter Mitty Hunters Club, which exposes military imposters, called it “an insult” to the corps.
