Nandy defends Rayner and dodges questions on Labour's second home ownership plans

Shadow minister Lisa Nandy has defended Labour's deputy leader Angela Rayner as controversy surrounding her living arrangements continues.
Questions have been circulating over the sale of an ex-council house she previously owned in Stockport, having been accused of avoiding capital gains tax - something she has denied.
When asked about second homes more broadly, Ms Nandy said Labour's plan is about trying to "tilt the balance of power back towards first time buyers and people who own their own homes to live in".
However, she dodged questions about what policies they will put in place around second homes for those who have invested to contribute to their pension pots, for example.

Even knowing that Labour are almost nailed on to be the next government, they still can’t say with any clarity what they will do or what their policies are. It’s beyond pathetic.

[@arionas11]

I though she was clear that it will be easier to borrow for your first home than for second. Is nt that clear? The Tories just had “policies” and promises that they never followed

[@AntGeezer]

@@arionas11 The only thing that’s clear for first time buyers is that they can’t afford to buy a house in the first place. How are they going to make it easier to borrow? I must have missed that bit….

The irony of this tax dodger. If this was a Tory Rayner would be calling for them to resign, call the leader weak not suspending them and calling for full transparency. I guess Labour haven't changed. Do as I say not as I do 😂

[@seamuspadraigsanders431]

She will use her status to claim immunity. The hidden contract.

[@keithparlour2686]

So Rayner bought the house under"the Tory rules"and now they don't like it,if someone already has a second home"good for them",what should happen is if a house comes up for sale anywhere it should be the first time buyers that should get the choice of buying it not the rich wealthy who will pay more for it,saying that though it keeps the first time buyers paying way over the top for the rent which then means they cant save enough to buy the property,win win for the rich again ain't it,trust me,most of these private landlords are not even on the landlords register,profiteering comes to mind

[@samhodgins9804]

No Labour MPs like it, they don't like normal people doing it, better to keep people poor and stuck in a position but people still bleat Labour care for them
