Her cry-bully acceptance speech was quite something to behold, even invoking the murdered Jo Cox to denounce her opposition as 'aggressive' and 'violent':

Expressing gratitude to West Midlands Police for their response to the “aggression that we have suffered” during the campaign, she concluded: “I didn’t bring my children here tonight, because I knew this would happen and they deserve better.”'

Unfortunate they didn't manage to get the win against her, and she fully deserved the boos and heckling she got.
