Stella Creasy says she remains 'terrified' of seeing the men who allegedly harassed her in the 1990s.
The MP said her first experience of sexual harassment was during her first year at Magdalene College. She said it took place from 1996 to 1998 and included a campaign of abusive posters when she ran for the role of president of the college's student council.
"I was held up and I was admonished by the college authorities at the time because they chose to believe the idea that I was probably 'a wronged woman'," Ms Creasy said. "And I say that because, several years after I left university, I did exactly that - I walked into a bar and they were all sat there, and I collapsed inside and left as soon as I could."
"But one of the things I want to say to women who have experienced those things in life and to the women in Parliament now, is that you will find allies, you will find those of us prepared to stand with you because we know what it's like, we know how hard it is and we know the impact it can have on you," she said.She said there was a "privilege and entitlement" in Parliament, where politicians have recently been sharing allegations of misconduct.
