Does anyone know how she was rumbled in the first place?
|
|
By:
As I understand it, came to light that she bought the holiday home in Hove, and journalists sniffed a story. Then the cover up started. It's always the cover up that does for them.

I'm not aware that I stated that Ms Rayner had resigned as a Member of Parliament? In my opinion Cider is being vexatious. He seems to have an extraordinary talent for that.

Angela Rayner has done the correct thing and resigned. Will Nigel Farage do the same thing? I very much doubt it.
It's not that difficult? |

An abiding memory of mine of Ms Rayner was how she tried to blag her way through the select committee grilling on the $39bn pledged towards housing. A bit like the blaggers on Dragons Den who have no clue about the numbers.
No doubt she has done extremely well for herself given her background, but a good grasp of facts and numbers should be a pre requisite if you are the de facto ministerial head dealing with a $39bn investment. |
|
By:
She resigned all her ministerial positions as she was found to have broke the ministerial code. Only ministers can break the ministerial code...
No need to resign as party deputy, but that was political I assume. As it would be a futile position on the back benches. |

Have you seen Starmer in the liaison committee

'Angela Rayner has done the correct thing and resigned.'
Did I say that Angela Rayner had resigned her position as a Member of Parliament? I did not. Cider is being vexatious. |

Resigned as a minister, ie from government. As she broke the ministerial code. She was going to cling on if she had been found not to have broken the code. People can only resign from government, if they are part of the government. It's not meant to be a puzzle or a riddle.

The funny thing is? I think me and Cider would get on like a house on fire over a pint or two of Tribute Bitter.

She was rumbled when she sold her house to the trust set up to for her child who recieved compensation from The NHS, both her and the husband apperntly made payments to the trust upon the divorce, kinda looks like he paid summit in and she took it out, and bought a 800k dwelling,looks like she undervalued the house she sold to the trust but the detail is still not thar.
Labour labelled "Tory sleaze" as everything from, cake, wine and borrowing for wallpaper ect, but as ever that's when on campaign trail, once in power it's oh so diff. |

It's illogical.
Raver made her political fortune by incessantly barking about and attacking people people for not paying their taxes. She's was in charge of housing, in a government that hiked stamp duty on the population. She bought a second property and dodged the stamp duty on second properties, that they put up! Once caught, she lied about the advice she received, and used her disabled son as a sympathy card to try and wriggle out of it. While accusing the people questioning her of attacking her for being female and working class. |

I tend to agree B&B. Bear in mind though that the vast majority of politicians are corrupt through and through.
Putting your faith in a politician is like holding a scorpion in the palm of your hand and trusting it not to sting you.  |

Well the dealings of the trust are a whole other level. Of course the details are not public but to say it is suspicious is an understatement. I read the son was 17, when he paid his own Mum for part of his house. The house appears to be overvalued, but just under the stamp duty threshold. Those funds were then leveraged to buy a property about as far away from him as possible.
There doesn't seem to be an obvious reason why he would not have gained control of the trust when he reached 18. So this 'transaction' happened just before he gained legal control (quite possibly). |
|
By:
Selling your own property to your disabled son, and using the cash to move hundreds of miles away. It's astonishing really, even if technically legal.

The truth is boring and doesn't get column inches and politicians need column inches to enhance their profile. Bending the truth is much more interesting

By:
High profile politicians are inherently dishonest as that is how they become high profile.

Technicalities are routinely abused by politicians. Nigel Farage is ample proof of that.
England 1 - 0 Andorra at half time. I think I need another pint of Tribute Bitter. |

I encourage anyone to use any vehicle available to them to prevent paying as much tax as is humanly possible. In fact, I'm willing to (and do) help them achieve it. What I don't do is advocate breaking tax law, or demand other people pay more tax than they have to (unless they demand that from others).
Raver is an archetypal champagne socialist, 'taxes for thee, but not for me'. Bad luck Raver, your arrogance caught up with your lack of intelligence eventually. |

I'm saddened to see her go, we don't see many MP's rise to the fore born without a silver spoon and etonian education.
I'm sick of the public school boys always running the country no matter who is voted in. They're crap at it, and rob the country blind. |

The UK is going thru some hard times.
The insanity of always voting for people who've never had it hard  it's like being in lifeboat in a storm and voting somebody who's never been to sea as captain. |

Hopefully we can find a middle line between Etonians and greedy uneducated chavs who would never get a job in the private sector.

Garage Farage at it again. Not disclosing his incoming in the Register.
Spends so much time in America to badmouth Britain…..who is paying him? |
