Angela Rayner Pledges to Cooperate With Inquiry Into Electoral and Tax Allegations
- Angela Rayner vows to continue campaigning despite police inquiry into allegations she breached electoral law and avoided capital gains tax
- Tory MP asked police to investigate if Rayner gave incorrect address on electoral register before becoming MP
- Critics argue Rayner should have paid capital gains tax on sale of former council house in 2015
- What exactly police are investigating is unclear due to time limit on electoral offenses and tax payment not necessarily an offense
- Rayner denies allegations, has tax advice she followed correctly, and will share information with authorities though not publicly
