Jess Phillips urges men to 'pass the mic' on Labour leadership

She added:"I think that if you truly believe in women's representation, sometimes... passing the mic is the greatest way to show that you truly believe in something but I think it is a very, very difficult argument to say you should stand back if you truly believe you are the best person for the job."

Speaking to Ridge, she said:"We've got into this position where people disagree on individual issues as if you can't then be trusted on anything else. It's a really dangerous culture. Meanwhile, Mick Whelan, general secretary of the Aslef trade union, told Ridge his union representatives would be meeting with the Labour Party leadership contenders over the coming days before deciding which candidate to support.
