Selfie queen Karen Danczuk told LBC's Nick Ferrari (pictured) in Liverpool today that she aspired to be an MP – insisting she could relate to ordinary women unlike the current crop of female politicians . Mrs Danczuk, 31, who revealed earlier this year that she had suffered sexual abuse, told LBC’s Nick Ferrari that she had rebuilt her life after being ‘shattered’ as a child. She said she used provocative selfie pictures on Twitter as a way of saying to others: ‘I will not be ashamed about who I am.’ Mrs Danczuk said she had rebuilt her life after the abuse, but now had the confidence to go into politics. She said: ‘There’s not many women that can relate to women. The women we do have in politics – and I’m not being rude to them because they’re really, really good – are they relating to ordinary women? I think they could relate a bit more.’ Mrs Danczuk became a hit on Twitter after posting a series of provocative photos of herself. She now describes herself as the 'selfie queen' Mrs Danczuk, 31, who revealed earlier this year that she had suffered sexual abuse, told LBC’s Nick Ferrari that she had rebuilt her life after being ‘shattered’ as a child . Ms Danczuk was asked if she would go into mainstream politics and replied: ‘Yeah, I would. I think in some ways women like me need to, to bring it back down to reality.’ The mother of two said she didn’t agree with the way women politicians always talked about female issue like childcare. She said: ‘I don’t necessarily think we should assume that because you’re a women, you should focus all your time and effort focussing on childcare. ‘Just speaking a language they understand – you know, dashing to do a school run, to then dash to the supermarket – just speaking about everyday problems.’ She said: ‘Women that I speak to, there’s just nothing there for them to relate to.’ Karen Danczuk, pictured outside Parliament last week, could find herself on the Commons benches with her husband . Mrs Danczuk, the Labour councillor and wife of MP Simon Danczuk, stopped for a drink at the Red Lion pub outside Parliament . Mrs Danczuk also spoke about the sex abuse abuse she suffered as a child and called for anyone who had gone through it to see a therapist. She said: ‘It shatters you – you trust no-one. You have nightmares. You can’t live a normal live.’ But she said therapy had helped. ‘I will not be ashamed about who I am. I used to be ashamed. If anyone says you shouldn’t wear low-cut tops – no, reclaiming your body is a part of the process of recovery. ‘Your body has been taken away from you – they take your body, you lose control of it. It’s not a good place to be.’ She said she used to have ‘horrific nightmares’ every night and couldn’t sleep. Mrs Danczuk said having therapy and ‘dealing with it’ had transformed her life. ‘I don’t think I’m God’s gift to man, but I just have that confidence back because I’ve took control of my life – because that’s what therapy does.’ She said selfies were important to her because they allowed her to be herself. ‘It’s just been happy with you. Selfies are a reflection of saying “this is me, take me as I am”. ‘This is me taking a selfie – anyone saying don’t do it, I say just don’t look because this is me.’
