I can't understand why Angela Rayner just doesn't pay back the 17k and the tax she dodged. Its not as if she can't afford it. In every interview she's getting so much grief over it yet she still won't repay it. Says a lot of her attitude towards this country and its people.

Wes Streeting has said he won't take his ministerial salary for his first three months, effectively repaying the £16,876 he received in severance. Angela Rayner and John Healey still haven't committed to paying theirs back, with Rayner refusing outright. The pressure is only going one way now. I think a U-turn is coming sooner rather than later.

Rayner's £182,000 Masterclass In Hypocrisy Angela Rayner spent years telling the country that MPs' second jobs were a racket. In March 2023 she wrote that being an MP "isn't a second job. It is the job." Labour, she promised, would put an end to the practice. Eighteen months later she resigned from Cabinet in disgrace over her own financial affairs. Within a year she had earned £182,376 from speeches, book advances and a severance payment she had no obligation to keep. Then she walked straight back into the job she had left. The figures are not subtle. She earned £104,000 from speaking fees in ten months, on top of an MP's salary that rose to £98,599 in April. She took £61,500 as a book advance for a memoir about her own life. She kept a £16,876 exit payment while Wes Streeting, reappointed to Cabinet the same week, is serving his first three months for nothing. One fee stands apart from the rest. Propertymark, a trade body representing the property sector, paid Rayner £20,000 for a two-hour speaking engagement. That is £10,000 an hour, from an industry lobby group, paid to a former Housing Secretary weeks before she was reappointed Housing Secretary. Nobody pays that rate for after-dinner charm. They pay it for access, and they got exactly what they paid for. This is not a speaking fee. It is a retainer with a lectern attached. The woman collecting these cheques left the department with a housebuilding record to be ashamed of. Official figures published by the Ministry of Housing in November show England delivered 208,600 net additional dwellings in 2024-25, a fall of 6 per cent on the year before. New build completions dropped from 198,610 to 190,600. Labour's manifesto promised 1.5 million homes over the Parliament, a rate of 300,000 a year. Rayner delivered barely two-thirds of that. Housebuilding did not accelerate under her stewardship. It slowed. She has an answer ready for all of it. The severance payment was earned, she told BBC Radio 5 Live, because she had genuinely left government for a period of time. That defence collapses under its own logic. The payment exists to cushion ministers against sudden unemployment. Rayner was not unemployed. She was the best-paid backbencher in Britain, drawing more from four speeches than most of her constituents earn in three years. Joanna Marchong of the think tank Onward put it plainly: Rayner built her brand attacking Tory sleaze and demanding a ban on MPs' outside earnings, then pocketed £180,000 the moment the rules stopped applying to her. Lee Anderson called her year out a good little earner. Both are right, and neither goes far enough. The deeper failure sits in the housing numbers, where the gap between rhetoric and delivery is measured not in pounds but in homes that were never built. Labour came to power promising a government that would look different from what came before it. Rayner's year off shows how quickly that promise curdles into the same old story: rules for the public, exemptions for the powerful, and a lobby group's cheque book standing in for genuine accountability. She missed her housing target by a third and was rewarded with reappointment. She broke her own stated principle on second jobs and was rewarded with £182,376. The voters who elected this government on a promise of change deserve to know that the change stopped at the Cabinet door. "Rayner's year off shows how quickly that promise curdles into the same old story: rules for the public, exemptions for the powerful"

Jesus! How have we got to the point where this woman is in such an influential role in this country.

Angela Rayner received £182,376 from second jobs, including corporate speaking engagements and a book advance. In 2023, she opposed MPs having a second job. The worst hypocrite by a mile.

Give it back hypocrite!

It's going to be an embarrassing climbdown when Angela Rayner ends up paying back her £16,876 severance payment after defending keeping it. Until it's resolved, the issue is likely to keep following her. Every interview will bring the same question: Why keep the money after

Starmer critices Farage: "He is up to his neck in sleaze" This is a bit rich from the disgraced PM who will be remembered for appointing paedo pal Mandelson, Chagos backhanders, and taking countless freebies from Lord Alli. What a hypocrite.

Let's be honest. The reason Keir Starmer voted against an inquiry into Pakistani rape gangs THREE TIMES (and is now watering it down) is because it will reveal his own failings as DPP. He's up to his neck in it. And Labour are complicit. I despise them.

EXCLUSIVE: An explosive Express investigation reveals Sir Keir Starmer's CPS committed a ‘betrayal' of a grooming gang victim so horrific that an independent reviewer labelled it ‘deplorable further abuse.' #DailyExpress express.co.uk/news/uk/218982…
