Angela Rayner to Return to Cabinet as Sir Keir Starmer Says He 'Missed' Her
Starmer praised Rayner as a major Labour voice and cited misogyny in criticism; Conservatives demand repayment of about £40,000 in unpaid property taxes, officials said.
- Earlier this week Sir Keir Starmer confirmed Angela Rayner will return to his UK Cabinet and answered `Yes` when pressed about her comeback.
- After an independent probe found breaches, Angela Rayner resigned from senior roles including deputy prime minister, housing secretary and deputy Labour leader over underpaying stamp duty.
- Starmer lauded Rayner as `hugely talented` and `the best social mobility story this country has ever seen`, saying she will be a major voice in the Labour movement.
- During PMQs last month, Kemi Badenoch contended that any comeback for Ms Rayner should be contingent upon her repaying `she must pay back the �40,000 of property taxes she avoided`.
- In an interview with The Observer, Starmer argued misogyny played a part in recent criticism of Rayner and Reeves, while a source close to Rayner denied any pact or vacancy.
