Angela Rayner, the former Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, has been cleared by the tax authority of any deliberate wrongdoing concerning her tax affairs. Reports indicate that she settled £40,000 ($54,000) in unpaid stamp duty after initially paying a lower rate, but did not face any penalties as a result of the investigation. Rayner, who had previously stepped down from her roles due to tax-related issues, expressed her willingness to participate in any leadership contest against Prime Minister Keir Starmer. She suggested that Starmer should consider stepping aside, especially as he faces pressure from over 90 lawmakers calling for his resignation following disappointing local election results. Additionally, Health Minister Wes Streeting is expected to resign and challenge Starmer for the leadership, indicating potential shifts within the Labour Party's hierarchy.
