Angela Rayner to claim kitchen renovation means no tax is due after her council house sale
Angela Rayner is expected to claim that she did not have to pay capital gains tax when she sold her former house due to a kitchen renovation, as the row over her housing affairs rumbles on.
The deputy Labour leader is likely to argue that enhancements she made to her former council house have offset the tax she would have paid had it not been her primary property, according to The Times.
It comes as the police are investigating “tax, including whether she broke electoral law, whether she paid the correct amount of capital gains tax when she sold her property and what the council tax arrangements were at her former house.
