UK Deputy Prime Minister Resigns Over Property Taxes

LONDON (AP) – British Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner resigned on Friday after an independent investigation did not meet the ethical standards for the ministers of the state in the last house recruitment.

On Wednesday, Rayner, who admitted that he did not pay enough taxes to buy an apartment on the southern coast of England in early this summer, found that the report was acting in good faith, but he had to get more specific tax advice.

“I take the full responsibility for this mistake,” he said in a letter to Prime Minister Keir Starmer.

Rayner, on Friday, reported to Starmer on Wednesday, Laurie Magnus directed to the independent advisor on the standards of the ministry.

In the UK, more expensive houses and secondary residences, higher wages and property purchases. Reports claimed that Rayner saved 40,000 pounds by not paying the appropriate tax known as stamp tax.

Rayner, who kept the housing briefing in the Labor Government and became famous as one of the most open speakers, frightened the deliberately intentional tax tax in the previous conservative administration, which took its place in July 2024.

Starmer said that Rayner had made the right decision but left the government to see that he had left the government.

Starmer, “I admire for you and I do not respect your success in politics,” he wrote. The handwriting letter signed “with the best wishes and real sorrow”.
