Labour's Deputy Leader Under Fire
Angela Rayner faced mounting questions and criticism over her tax affairs and the sale of her former council house.
Policy Critic Criticized
Despite criticizing the right-to-buy policy, Rayner is now at the center of controversy for her own property dealings.
Refusal to Address Financial Affairs
Rayner has come under fire for not addressing questions about her financial affairs, especially concerning capital gains tax on a property sale.
Conflicting Reports
Confusion arises as neighbors claim Rayner's brother was living in the sold property, despite her assertion that she resided there.
HMRC's Stance
HMRC states that capital gains tax relief can only be used for one primary property per couple, leading to calls for further explanation.
Political Reaction
Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer's office and Angela Rayner's team faced pressure to address the ongoing inquiries and provide clarity on the matter.
Tory MP Jonathan Gullis emphasized the need for Rayner to address the questions, stating, "If she has nothing to hide, she should have nothing to fear."
