An English politician was accompanied by her baby boy in the Commons today as she warned new mothers are “rebuked” rather than supported when returning to Parliament.

Labour MP Stella Creasy’s newborn was strapped to her as she rose in the chamber to ask Commons Leader Jacob Rees-Mogg to take action.
