Was the deputy prime minister trying to evade and dodge tax? Is she a “hypocrite”? Or was she simply doing what she thought was the right thing? Beth Rigby takes Ruth Davidson and Harriet Harman behind the scenes of her interview with Angela Rayner this week as they ask whether she will survive in government, or whether she will have to resign. It all emerged after Angela Rayner admitted she didn’t pay enough tax on her home in Hove – you can catch the exclusive 20-minute interview in the Electoral Dysfunction feed. After recording, Verrico & Associates confirmed that it had advised Rayner on the purchase of the flat. Joanna Verrico, the managing director, told The Telegraph: “We acted for Ms Rayner when she purchased the flat in Hove. We did not and never have given tax or trust advice. It’s something we always refer our clients to an accountant or tax expert for. “The stamp duty for the Hove flat was calculated using HMRC’s own online calculator, based on the figures and the information provided by Ms Rayner. That’s what we used, and it told us we had to pay £30,000 based on the information provided to us. We believe that we did everything correctly and in good faith. Everything was exactly as it should be.” #skynews #uknews #politics #government #vodcast You can follow the Electoral Dysfunction podcast here: https://podfollow.com/electoraldysfun...
