How did Angela Rayner come unstuck? A legal expert explains
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"The debate over former deputy prime minister Angela Rayner's tax arrangements demonstrated that there are few topics more complex than the law of trusts. It was politically awkward, to say the least, when a deputy PM and housing secretary had to admit getting it wrong and underpaying 40,000 in stamp duty. Rayner has resigned after being found to have breached the ministerial code in the wake of the stamp duty row."
The Independent covers major issues — from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech — by sending reporters to developing stories and producing documentaries like 'The A Word'. The outlet solicits donations to sustain on-the-ground journalism and to keep reporting accessible without paywalls, arguing that quality journalism should be paid for by those who can afford it. A recent political episode involved former deputy prime minister Angela Rayner, whose use of a trust and subsequent underpayment of roughly 40,000 in stamp duty prompted findings of a ministerial code breach and her resignation.
