In her speech, she said Iain Duncan Smith was responsible for the "destruction of the welfare state and the total and utter incompetence of his department".
GLENDA JACKSON SLATES IAIN DUNCAN SMITH
She said: "At some point I’m pretty certain he would like to be able to claim that can walk on water – he can’t."
She became an idol for thousands overnight.
Glenda Jackson is my new hero. RT @suzanne_moore: Has everyone seen Glenda Jackson's obliterating Iain Duncan Smith?? http://t.co/aSAjkcF3b3
Glenda Jackson take a bow you absolute queen #DWP http://t.co/nhIl4ZPuWd
Glenda Jackson is an incredible woman.
And she even started to garner support from people who don't even support the party.
Bet even IDS feels like a right turnip after this. I'm no fan of Labour, but go'ed Glenda... http://t.co/kCgz8hdeWx
If Glenda Jackson was leader of Lab, I might consider voting for them!
Someone suggested that Ed Miliband should promote Jackson to the front bench.
ED you must promote Glenda Jackson her tirade of IDS yesterday brought cheers from other participants in the chamber IDS was stonefaced
Labour needs a leader with balls, like Glenda Jackson.
But it could all be resolved if she just joined Twitter.
I love Glenda Jackson. So on it, so coherent. Go girl. Wish she was on Twitter
