She spoke out after male Labour MPs heckled her during a Commons debate about the topic.

Senior Sir Keir aide Matthew Doyle was also recorded saying she should spend “a bit more time” in her constituency rather than “hanging out with JK Rowling”.

Hitting back, Ms Duffield – a domestic abuse survivor – said she feels “invisible” and isolated by party chiefs after speaking out on women’s rights.

She told Trending In The News on Sunday: “I am not part of the clique”, she said.

“It is not good at all. It is like low level bullying all the time. I am just being completely ignored and blanked.”

The Canterbury MP said she is often purposely left out of invites to go campaigning with other Labour MPs – even when it’s near her constituency.

“They do this constantly”, she said. “I am completely on my own.” 

Ms Duffield is an outspoken critic of the erosion of womens’ rights, and has said it is “dystopian” that the Labour leader cannot say women cannot have a penis.

Social media trolls – including Labour members –  have hurled a wave of vile abuse at her for daring to speak out.

Earlier this week, Sir Keir said he had “met Rosie a number of times and talked to her” about her concerns.

A Labour source said: “There’s been proactive conversations with Rosie from people across the party. As with all our MPs, there are multiple channels of support always open.”
