Angela's £800K Hove Flat Drama: Tax Woes Meet PM Whisperers
Angela Rayner, Deputy Prime Minister and human magnet for political drama, purchased a swanky £800,000 flat not in her own constituency of Ashton-under-Lyne but in sun-kissed Hove. Critics are obsessively tangled up in the complex tax mumbo jumbo behind the scenes, while her PR squad swoons over the fact that the Prime Minister’s adviser on ministerial standards isn’t poking around. Meanwhile, Rayner has switched to the world-class silence mode, citing a mysterious court order forbidding some juicy details to be spilled. Expect five hard-hitting questions aimed at her when she finally dares to speak, adding more fuel to this tax-and-property soap opera.
