Angela Rayner purchases second home for over £700,000 sparking 'hypocrisy' claims

Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner has bought a third home on the south coast for over £700,000 - which comes after she oversaw changes allowing councils to double council tax levies for second-home owners.

Ms Rayner owns a property in her constituency of Ashton-under-Lyne, which she purchased for £375,00 in 2016 and is now valued at £650,000. She also has a grace-and-favour ministerial apartment in Admiralty House in Westminster.
