"This by-election is potentially going to be a really consequential by-election - maybe the most consequential by-election of this parliament".
She used a football analogy to explain why the Labour Party have "got to get behind Keir Starmer".
"I want to make sure we are putting out the best team on the pitch week after week so that we can win those important matches"
