Angela Rayner: Police reveal investigation into council house row
Dire Keir, not giving her his 100% backing, lol!

by Property118.com News Team

11:54 AM, 12th April 2024.

Greater Manchester Police (GMP) has revealed that investigations are underway into Angela Rayner, Labour’s deputy leader, following allegations of electoral law breaches.

The police had previously dismissed the need for an inquiry into accusations that she had given false address information.

But a report in The Times yesterday revealed that police had still not spoken with neighbours over Ms Rayner’s version of events over where she was living.

The focus of the police investigation is whether Ms Rayner registered an incorrect property on the electoral roll.

This inquiry is separate from any potential tax law violations, which would fall under the jurisdiction of HMRC.

Police investigation into Ms Rayner
The reopening of the police investigation into Ms Rayner follows a complaint by James Daly, deputy chairman of the Tory party.

A GMP spokesperson said: “We’re investigating whether any offences have been committed. This follows a reassessment of the information provided to us by Mr Daly.”

Ms Rayner has denied any wrongdoing and has received support from Labour leader, Sir Keir Starmer.

A Labour spokesperson said: “Angela welcomes the chance to set out the facts with the police.

“We remain completely confident that Angela has complied with the rules at all times and it’s now appropriate to let the police do its work.”

May have avoided capital gains tax?

The initial accusation came from an unauthorised biography of Ms Rayner by Tory peer Lord Ashcroft which suggested that she may have avoided capital gains tax when selling her former council house in 2015.

That property was registered as her main address on the electoral roll.

But that raised questions about her living arrangements, particularly after the re-registration of her two youngest children’s births.

They were registered at her husband’s separate address shortly after their marriage in 2010.

Ms Rayner has stated that she consulted with tax experts to ensure she did not owe tax but has chosen not to publish the advice she received.

Mr Starmer has backed her, stating he does not need to see the tax advice and accusing the Tories of ‘chasing a smear’ against her.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak earlier this week called for both Mr Starmer and Ms Rayner to provide ‘straight̵7; answers about her tax affairs.

He said that many people, including the deputy Labour leader, had asked him ‘lots of questions’ about his tax affairs.

Grant Shapps levels ‘double standards’ charge at Ms Rayner
The defence secretary Grant Shapps has levelled a charge of ‘double standards’ at Angela Rayner, expressing his approval of the police inquiry into the Labour deputy leader.

He pointed out that Ms Rayner has ‘spent her political career calling people out’ and insisted on transparency – yet she has not demonstrated the same level of openness in relation to the allegations against her.

Despite her previous insistence that a Tory candidate disclose their tax return, Ms Rayner has declined to make public the tax advice she obtained regarding the sale of her council house.

Speaking to the media this morning, Mr Shapps said: “I think the double standards have been extraordinary.

“Angela Rayner herself has spent her political career calling people out for exactly the thing that she seems to be doing now.

“It’s not acceptable to ignore it, and it’s not acceptable for Keir Starmer to say he won’t even read reports into it.

“This is something which is a serious matter. It’s important that it’s looked into properly and I welcome the idea that the police are doing that.”

Starmer says police investigation will bring closure
Labour leader, Sir Keir Starmer, has stated that the police investigation into Angela Rayner’s council house sale will enable closure on the issue.

He expressed his full confidence that Ms Rayner had not violated any rules.

Mr Starmer said: “We welcome this investigation because it will allow a line to be drawn in relation to this matter.

“I am fully confident that Angela Rayner has not broken the rules.

“She will cooperate with the investigation as you would expect, and it is really a matter for the police.”

Sadiq Khan and Ed Miliband rally behind Angela Rayner
London mayor Sadiq Khan has expressed his full confidence in 0Angela Rayner, whom he refers to as his ‘best friend’, and that she will be exonerated in a police investigation.

Mr Khan said: “I’m fully confident in Angela, she’s one of my best friends and I’m sure she’ll be cleared.”

Echoing this sentiment, Ed Miliband, the shadow energy minister, said: “We are absolutely 100% behind Angela.

“We are absolutely confident that she has complied with the rules.”

What are the consequences of breaking electoral law?
If an individual declines to provide information to an Electoral Registration Officer, or provides incorrect information, specific penalties may be enforced.

The rules specify that any individual who does not comply or provides incorrect information may be subject to a summary conviction and a fine not exceeding £1,000.

In cases where the offence is not considered severe enough for a criminal conviction, civil penalties may also be levied.

Don’t be fooled by falling house prices – Labour will make them more unaffordable than ever
Starmer’s policies will fail without immigration controls and housebuilding

Should I buy one one these ? :

‘New-build owners told to sign NDAs to see details of soaring estate charges
EXCLUSIVEHomeowners tell i they don't know where their money is going as they face soaring mandatory charges for services such as grass cutting’

[kreature] 03/4/2024 17:33

From now on, no mentioning unregulated uncapped management estate charges in the deeds. Agreed?

[kreature] 03/4/2024 09:39

Anyway, sorry for annoying you. Will take a look at the positives in new builds

[kreature] 02/4/2024 22:43

Perhaps the Home Owners Alliance summarises it best here:

[pander45] 02/4/2024 22:09

Better than dealing with one dimensional monosylabic morons such as you. You have no class, or intelligence to back up your assertions which are clearly biased and arranged on the group daily for your personal gain. You are just a keyboard weasel, ferreting around, not unlike an unpleasant disease, to perpetually advertise your warped narrative on the housing market.

[kreature] 02/4/2024 17:55

Management companies ‘appended to the deeds’ is absolutely how it is typically with new build. Typically that being Unregulated and Uncapped estate charges, and other such onerous covenants in the deeds. Therefore the freehold is possibly not free from hold. Hence why many MPs are call them ‘Fake Freeholds’ or fleeceholds. The issue is that management companies could choose to act with impunity and harm the capital value of the house by increasing the annual estate charges. And there is no right to redress unless via the courts.

Estate home owners taking over the estate management is not a great solution imv because the residents are still responsible for the public spaces, and still have to pay the full council tax, and probably worst of all, the residents would be forced to deal with each other, rather than the local authority.

[pander45] 02/4/2024 17:02

Incorrect and ill informed again. Residents can form a majority co-operative in many cases and remove and replace the management service provider. Do you actually know what you are talking about, or are you just mindlessly guessing? This route has been adopted by many estate dwellers across the country, including mine.

[kreature] 02/4/2024 10:03

“ appended to the deeds “

ie, horrific

Imo

[kreature] 01/4/2024 01:36

‘ Inadequate solicitors advice possibly leading to homeowners trapped by ‘fleeceholds’ ‘

‘ The contract in place appears to be appended to the deeds or form part of the contract of purchase. Therefore, could conveyancing solicitors be answerable for their clients’ suffering?’

[kreature] 31/3/2024 20:44

‘ The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) has also recommended ending the private estates model, which has been used by for 40% of all new builds across Britain in the last five years ‘

I thought is was 80% so called ‘fake freehold’ , not 40% ?

[kreature] 31/3/2024 19:35

You can fix poor quality workmanship
But looks like nothing you can do about a management company inside your deeds.
Other than perhaps sell up and hope to find someone as naive to buy with an equally negligent lawyer ?

[sikhthetech] 31/3/2024 15:48

New homes poor build quality.

Others have raised concerns over poor quality new builds for a while.
Also concerns mentioned by CMA



"A Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) report, published last month, has raised concerns about the build quality of some new homes, and a petition has been set up calling for government accountability for substandard housing and infrastructure."

[sikhthetech] 31/3/2024 15:11

Backs what Kreature has been saying for a while about 'Fleeceholds'


We had onerus ground rent scandal
Fire safety/cladding.
Help to Buy.
CMA investigations.

Now 'fleeceholds'
as well as poor quality builds.



Housing estate 'fleeceholds' the next great scandal, Tory peer warns

"A Conservative peer - and ex-adviser to Boris Johnson - has warned "fleeceholds" will be "the next great scandal" to hit the housing market.

The term is used to describe the plight of homeowners on new-build estates locked into private maintenance contracts for communal areas."

[kreature] 26/3/2024 09:33

Is the second hand housing market stalling? No problem getting a next day appointment with estate agent. Estate agents sounding polite on telephone, a red flag imo. Anything renovated with the sun in the garden sells, but the vast majority of rubbish just sitting there imv

[onehanded] 21/3/2024 08:22

So will see be no rise today on interest rates, BUT the forecast will be for June. Chance to get in early before the big funds start to build. Any shorts will be closed and will be buying. Medium target £15, longer term £18 to £20. Watching and buying on dips.

[cupra kid] 20/3/2024 13:33

More and more sites that I'm visiting are saying very similar things. Sales steadily increasing, volumes picking up.

[onehanded] 20/3/2024 08:34

Going to test £15 mark on next interest news, as a cut now being pencilled in for June. Yes been under pressure but looking forward going to be a steady rise as the housing market starts to recover into 2025. Rather be buying now and holding than waiting for interest cuts. So a medium term view should be very profitable.
