The deputy prime minister is facing a standards investigation, after admitting she underpaid stamp duty.

I don’t know what people are so upset about. She only failed to pay a little bit of tax. Hundreds of bankers and multinationals so the same and nobody says anything.

Oh wait… 😅

    I supect that Starmer was happy to remove a possible rival. Rayner is slightly more leftish than the rest of the cabinet and less of a triangulating, tabloid-grovelling careerist zombie.
