DAILY MAIL COMMENT: Why won't Rayner come clean on tax?
When then Tory chairman Nadhim Zahawi got into bother with the Inland Revenue, she led calls for him to come clean or resign.
And when Prime Minister Rishi Sunak was on the rack over failing to declare his wife's business interests, she volubly condemned the 'transparency black hole'.
Yet when inconvenient questions are asked over her own tangled property and financial dealings, Mrs Rayner becomes uncustomarily coy. This reticence is regrettable.
What fun, but it always is fun to see politicians squirm. This story doesn't yet seem to be on the way out either, especially as the Tories don't have many reasons to indulge in some finger-pointing.
"Sir" Keir must have doubts about managing his Parliamentary rabble if he is unlucky enough to become Prime Minister.

The new spin on the Post Office is taking the limelight at the moment, so Growlergate is seconded for a while!
If the spineless Tories kept up the pressure, they'd get a result, but I don't hold my breath...
Scrobs - yes, it's a pity the story is subsiding but that's how it goes. It could be revisited later of course.
