OK, let's be generous and say that the Deputy Prime Minister, while surrounded by some of the keenest minds in the country, was given duff advice. Then, as a taxpayer, I call upon Angela Raynor to name those who gave her the wrong advice, and for those individuals to be investigated and or prosecuted if warranted.

Angela Rayner consulted three people before flat purchase, BBC understands

It is unclear whether the individuals the deputy PM consulted had expertise in complex tax law.

I think this was an accident but the people who supported her without getting independent expert advice look dafter than her and Bad-Enoch looks downright nasty. She should have undermined her credibility, not gone on the attack. She's useless.

I disagree. Ignorance is no defence. She knew full well what she was doing. She might not have understood it, but she knew she was going to benefit hugely from it. Otherwise, why do it?

This is Jimmy Carr all over again.

I think it would have been a very stupid thing to have done deliberately, knowing the level of scrutiny she'd be under. My experience of accountants and tax law is that they give advice without accepting responsibility. I'm very cautious, so avoided trouble but I could have taken more risks and probably got away with it, like rich people do.

I'm not convinced. I don't like her, so it wouldn't be unfair to accuse me of a biased opinion.

I think she's as common as muck, a chav tbh. IMV, her political beliefs are stuck in the 70s, and I'm not surprised Corbyn has offered her a place in his party if she gets booted out.

No sooner had she become part of the Government than she leapt into the trough with her so-called loans of Designer clothes, freebie junkets and dodgy finances. This is an individual out of her depth trying to play with the grown-ups.
