Posing for a racy photo strip ...yes, that IS Lisa Nandy, the wannabe PM

- By Glenn Owen and James Heale

LISA NANDY, the ‘dark horse’ Labour leadership contender, once offered sex advice to students – and starred in a photo casebook naked in bed with another woman.

Ms Nandy – whose prospects have surged since her composed performanc­e in last week’s BBC interview with Andrew Neil – appeared in a comic book-style photostrip recording her quest to find a boyfriend in Newcastle University’s Courier student paper.

The Wigan MP’s racy past came to light as fellow leadership candidate Jess Phillips, 38, was revealed as a co-author of a ‘hot or not’ column in her Leeds student newspaper in which she praised Kylie Minogue’s bottom.

Ms Nandy, 40, was a politics undergradu­ate at Newcastle two decades ago. Described as an agony aunt ‘who likes a bit of hot mail’ she is shown in the strip saying: ‘I’ll never find a man!’ When a friend suggests a suitable partner, Ms Nandy is pictured with the prospectiv­e date as a thought bubble reads: ‘Oh, my God! I’m not f***ing s **** ing THAT!’

Later, as she is chatted up by another student who offers her a drink, Ms Nandy says: ‘I’d love a stiff one! Actually, d’ya wanna come back to my place?’

After apparently having sex with him, the MP is pictured discussing the incident with a pal, where she complains: ‘His w***y was the smallest I’ve ever seen! I’m going back on the pull.’ Later, after the interventi­on of a ‘Fairy Godfather’, Ms Nandy is pictured naked with her arms around a blonde woman, saying: ‘Ooh, I thought you only had your ears pierced!!!’

In another column she writes: ‘There are just no fit men at this university… There’s a lot of diversity in a university – virgins, slimy b ****** s who offer to buy you a drink but have no intention of doing any such thing, geeks, the lot. The only solution is to quit the manhunt and wait till after uni when you’re back amongst normal people.’

Ms Phillips was joint author of a Leeds Student column rating various trends and personalit­ies. Written under her maiden name of Jessica Trainor, one column says of Ms Minogue’s bottom: ‘Hot or not depending which sex you are. Great for you lads, bad for us girls – we’re praying it’s implants or we may lose the will to live.’

Ms Nandy and Ms Phillips are two of the five leadership contenders alongside Emily Thornberry, 59, Sir Keir Starmer, 57, and Rebecca Long-Bailey, 40.

Ms Thornberry featured prominentl­y in Kent University’s InCant newspaper as a staunch member of the Labour club during the early 1980s.

The Shadow Foreign Secretary is described as ‘one of the most popular politician­s on campus’.

Meanwhile, Sir Keir read law at Leeds University where his only reference in Leeds Student was a personal advert hailing him as ‘Keir Starmer – king of middle class radicals.’
