Jonathan Ashworth has revealed he was forced to seek refuge in a vicarage after being chased down the street during the General Election campaign.
Speaking in his first interview since losing his seat, Mr Ashworth told Andrew Marr he had “never known a campaign of such vitriol, such bullying, such intimidation".
He said during the General Election campaign he was "chased down the street" and "shouted at and screamed at for 40, 45 minutes".
He said he "worried about [his] family and children", sharing that he was "campaigning with [his] 10-year-old because she wanted to help daddy on election day and one of these loud mouths shouted at me that I was genocide Jon, and everybody despised me".
