Angela Rayner is CLEARED over stamp duty scandal by HMRC just in time for Labour leadership bid
Angela Rayner has been cleared by HMRC of "deliberate wrongdoing or carelessness" over her tax affairs - the scandal which prompted her resignation as Deputy PM.
Ms Rayner has settled £40,000 in unpaid stamp duty after initially paying the lower rate, but has not paid any penalty as a result of the investigation, The Guardian has just revealed.
Ms Rayner suggested she may be willing to challenge Sir Keir Starmer for the keys to No10, telling the newspaper she wanted to "play my part".
