The issue here is that she talks about herself and her own experiences? I don't agree with all her Politics, but I think she is a decent human being who gets a very hard time - mostly friendly fire.

* It emerged that Matt Hancock was £350k better off as a direct result of the Cheltenham festival going ahead

By "threaten the UK", they actually mean, "threaten Tory Party funding and backhanders to their MPs".
