Dawn Butler: Theresa May 'a danger to democracy'

Speaking to talkRADIO’s Matthew Wright, Ms Butler said: “She’s doing everything she possibly can to get her deal through the house, from running down the clock to now offering money for votes. “That’s very dangerous for our democracy and I think people need to take this seriously.” Ms Butler added that the sum of money offered was just a “drop in the ocean” compared to cuts made to local authority funding as part of the government’s austerity measures. “It’s such small fry in terms of what local communities have lost, and I don’t think our MPs are that cheap,” Ms Butler added.
