Casdon good question. Have you had positive vetting? This is the future deputy prime minister and it’s not a good look however it’s spun.

It makes no difference whatsoever to her job. I have no doubt that there are lots of MPs with partners/children/parents with criminal records, dubious legal or illegal jobs, and who are dishonest themselves. It’s time she was left alone and the focus and scrutiny moved on to MPs who have committed serious misdemeanours instead.

Meanwhile Guido Fawkes is running a story on Angela Rayner’s son and daughter in law…. It gets worse every day.

What possible relevance does that have to her ability to do her job? Last time I looked, parents didn’t control the activities of their adult children?

Ah well , Guido always tells the truth.

Ryan and his wife star in multiple porn films….. £5.50 per month subscription fee. Ryan is Angela Rayner’s only son. Reported by Guido Fawkes.

Let's hope they've inherited their mum's stoicism, and honesty.

Wasting police time..

Iam64 Wed 29-May-24 20:54:46

I’m relieved and not surprised. This police investigation was triggered by the same Conservative who accused Rayner and Starmer of breaching lockdown rules. Police investigated and confirmed they hadn’t

I don’t agree that I made nasty slurs.
I loathe Galloway. I’m concerned about the way he distorted the truth and lied.
My experience of living in an area with a large community of people of Pakistani Muslim heritage is that they are politically active and very interested in local issues,
One of our soup kitchens is run by volunteers, many from that community. One of our female MP’s is from that community, as is the mayor and several conservative and Labour councillors

Charity is an important part of Muslim faith, so I was told.

Muslims make up a proportion of the populace.
Why wouldn't mps adress them?

Whether there are women present is entirely between themselves and their partners, I'd imagine.

I appreciate you enjoy making provocative comments nicenanny3. Would you prefer our MP’s to refuse to meet with their constituents because they’re not white British?

I'm quoting The Daily Mail is that not allowed 🤔 not my words. As for your nasty slur/insinuation that is simply not true I have mixed race grandchildren. My point is/was that Angela Rayner is campaigning about Palastine/Gaza which it seems to me is the main issue that these men at this meeting are interested in not anything else to do with their local area, just like George Galloway was. So get off your high horse and face facts instead of making racist comments/slurs to another poster ie me.

RAMZAN: Why footage of Angela Rayner grovelling for votes from a room full of Muslim men - with hardly a woman to be seen - shows Labour is pandering to misogyny

(Daily Mail)

I think we can safely say that no man pushes Angela Rayner around, Muslim or otherwise. She doesn’t pander to misogyny in any respect - she’s more likely to spit in its face.

MissAdventure Wed 29-May-24 18:14:02

I don't think labour need to grovel.
The tories have ensured that.

Including a penalty for late payment. Good of you to acknowledge an oversight, many wouldn’t. We all make mistakes.

£5m I think.

Yes GSM. A careless oversight on my part - Zahawi admitted it was £5m.

Wyllow3 Wed 29-May-24 13:27:44

75 million! sheesh.
