Telegraph as picked up on Rachel Reeves replacing a picture of Dominic Lawson with one of Ellen Wilkinson. They are outraged that she has replaced Lawson with the Communist party member Ellen Wilkinson.
Forgetting that Wilkinson was elected as Labour MP for Middlesbrough East in 1924 and later Jarrow. As part of the Ministry of Home Security she had responsibility for air raid shelters and implemented the production and distribution of Anderson Shelters.
Appointed as as minister for education under Attlee she was instrumental in the implementation of the Education Act 1944, which provided universal free secondary education and introduced free school milk (Famously taken away by Thatcher)
But, to the Telegraph she's just a picture of a communist that has replaced Lawson.
