Press secretary says Kemi Badenoch ‘had been civil’ when she called Nadine White ‘creepy and bizarre’
Downing Street has defended a government minister who publicly called a journalist “creepy and bizarre” for asking questions about a Covid vaccines video.
Kemi Badenoch, the equalities minister, accused the HuffPost journalist in a Twitter thread of “making up claims” and published screenshots of questions sent to her MP’s office and to a ministerial press office, naming the reporter, Nadine White, who then received a torrent of abuse, according to HuffPost.
