Angela Rayner steps down over stamp duty row
- Deputy prime minister Angela Rayner has left her government job after an investigation into her tax affairs over her purchase of an £800,000 flat in Hove, East Sussex.
- Ms Rayner referred herself to the independent adviser on ministerial standards Sir Laurie Magnus over the issue earlier this week.
- She admitted to wrongly listing the flat as her primary residence, which resulted in a lower stamp duty payment, and said she was working with lawyers and HMRC to resolve the matter.
Maybe she'll just sink into the obscurity they all deserve, so no point stocking up with popcorn just yet.

Whose job is it to investigate the dealings between her as an individual and her as a trustee for her son? Starmer's Stasi, I assume?
Anyway, goodbye Angie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZ_0ImDYrPY
dearieme - I don't know whose job it is unless it's the other trustees.
The orangutan is a good driver, better than some who come down our street.
Lyrics seem appropriate.
