Assault allegations
In March 2016 a national newspaper alleged Harris had assaulted a member of her office staff in November 2014. The staff member claimed it was because she had come out as a lesbian because she also called her "dyke shoes". Harris denied the claims and blamed it on 'town hall politics'.[2]
