Is she a gift that keeps on giving !!!
Angela Rayner ‘avoided £40,000 stamp duty on new seaside flat’

She got divorced, moved out of her family home and bought a new property. Do better, do some research and don’t listen to the right wing loons.Quote:

Bookmark this reply. You know she’s done nothing wrong, I know she’s done nothing wrong and the right wing loons know she’s done nothing wrong. They’ve tried dirty tactics against her so many times it’s getting bloody boring.Quote:

Her tweet history on those who have done similar and what she has said on the subject, her own tactics have boomeranged. Rules for thee but not for me springs to mind, a government minister should be setting the std. ?Quote:

Its that sort of complete nonsense and bull that is completely unacceptable and I hope she gets driven out along with Starmer , Reeves and the rest of them and replaced by decent labour MPs
Whilst HB is a dozy old arse I dont think this is about hating women
Yup, dozy old arse pointing out the hypocrisy and to be fair even you understands it TBF.Quote:

Of course it’s about hating women. Where’s all the right wing media outrage at all the men who own portfolios of properties.Quote:

And then there’s the hypocrisy of the Tories calling for an investigation into Rayner’s tax affairs.
She is fair game as a senior politician - for her views, for her actions and for any hypocrisy.Quote:

That is just wrong and pig-headed and an inversion of 'identity politics crap'. You are in denial and appear to be happy that way.
No, what I think is that you have legitimate and less legitimate criticism.
Legitimate criticism will focus on their policies or decisions, and we wont all agree on that, or the strength or tone it's delivered, but at least it's based on political decisions
Less legitimate is personal criticisms. Now some will argue personal issues do count - such as if someone cheats on their partner, or if they appear rude as a person. I guess that may be fair enough but its less legitimate for me. Rayner gets her fair share of that, although not as much as others IMO.
What is definitely not acceptable is any criticism based on her gender or race etc. I am pretty wise to that. As mentioned before I have called it out on here when female politicians have been called bitches, sluts etc.
I guess some people may hate Rayner cos she is female. Some people hate Johnson cos he's male and some may hate Sunak cos his parents came from India.
What you need to do is evidence the level of it though. For this to be labeled as "all about hating women" by Ninian Opinion is very incorrect in my opinion an creates a false narrative designed to detract.
Personally I don't mind Rayner. I think her labeling opponents as scum was appalling but she rightly apologised.
Bigger issue here for me is probably why she is buying a main residence hundreds of miles away from her constituents.
Can you now name all the MPs whose main residence is not in their constituencies for balance?Quote:

No. But I think all MPs should live in their constituencies or at least close to them and not the other side of the country. And if someone is responsible for Housing policy then they should expect to be under even greater scrutiny.Quote:

I think its fine to be a bulldog in politics but you have to deal with questions of your own
I think she's being hung by her own petard
What do you expect a woman to do? Stay in an unhappy marriage and continue to live with her ex husband? Why shouldn’t she be allowed to buy her own house and move on?Quote:
