Amber Rudd rounded on Tory leadership contenders last night for ‘parading’ their wives in a bid to win support. The Work and Pensions Secretary also complained it was ‘all the men’ putting themselves forward to succeed Theresa May at the moment. Her comments were seen as a criticism of leadership frontrunners Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt and former Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab who both appeared in public with their wives last week. In an interview with Newsnight, Miss Rudd said instead of parading their partners, leadership candidates should be talking about policy. So she is the perfect foreign secretary’s wife.’
