The Labour MPs who attended the sex segregated rally were silent this morning when asked for comment by the Speccie. Nigel Farage has now challenged them to explain themselves on LBC:

“It was a political Labour party meeting. Men sat on the right hand side and women sat on the left hand side. And if that is not giving in, if that is not turning our backs on a century or more of advancement for women’s rights, then I don’t know what is. I believe that’s got no place in modern civilised Britain… I want to know from the Labour Party, how in the name of your party can you have allowed that to have happened?”
