Angela Rayner ‘may not be able to afford Hove flat after losing job’ | Politics | News
Angela Rayner’s salary was largely cut after leaving the government and asked questions about the new coastal pad’s ability to meet mortgage payments. The workers’ deputy faces a large penalty that can reach £ 50,000 for tax affairs. Ms. Rayner resigned after it was revealed that there was a low wage tax on an £ 800,000 Hove property.
The former Deputy Prime Minister and the Housing Secretary admitted that he had accepted £ 40,000 stamp tax in the apartment purchased earlier this year. Ms. Rayner’s salary is now £ 67.505 from £ 161.409 to £ 93.904. The conservatives also demanded that the £ 16,876 be out of the payment of severance pay, because in the opposition, he voted to stop receiving collective amounts.
Toray Party President Kevin Hollinrake said: “If he has any integrity, he should definitely refuse any seniority payment.”
Ms. Rayner sold its 25% stake at the Ashton-Under-Lyne house in Great Manchester for £ 162,500 and used it to pay £ 150,000 on Hove property. Telegraph shows that there is a £ 650,000 mortgage in the coast office, which can leave it with repayments of £ 4,000 per month.
After the tax, now there is a salary income of £ 5,400 to pay for the West Sussex Office – a big decline in £ 8,100 as Deputy Prime Minister.
In his letter of resignation to Sir Keir, Rayner said: “Considering my position both as a housing secretary and as a complex family arrangements, I deeply regret my decision to look for additional expert tax advice. I take full responsibility for this error.
Ethical guard dog Sir Laurie Magnus concluded that Angela Rayner “acts with a special and exemplary commitment to unity and public service”, but violated the law on taxes. In a report presented to Sir Keir, he said: “Accordingly, I have to tell you that I think the code is violated in these conditions.”
Sir Keir Starmer, Angela Rayner’a “you will remain an important figure in our party” and resigning, “passion will continue to fight for the reasons you care about,” he said.
Ms. Rayner resigned as a deputy leader of the Labor Party, which will continue as a deputy for Ashton-Under-Lyne, but also a position in which it was separate from government positions.
