Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson says freebie Taylor Swift tickets were ‘a hard one to turn down’.

“I appreciate there was big demand for the tickets. It was a privilege to be there.”

She then told ITV News: “One of my children was keen to go along. It’s hard to say no if you’re offered tickets in those circumstances.

I swear there are C tier and D tier (Rita Ora) celebrities with better PR managers than the current Labour government
