For context, this is nearly 1,000x the tax Angela Rayner is supposedly meant to owe.

And this is a VERY SMALL Tory scandal by their standards.

The headlines about Liz Truss are as parodic as the contents of her new book...

Telegraph: 'Liz Truss: No10 was a prison infested with fleas'
telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/04/1…

Guardian: 'Liz Truss book says husband predicted premiership ‘would all end in tears’'

Will Liz Truss's new book turn out to be a fake news story planted by Joe Lycett?

Joe Lycett

The Mirror takes the term 'gutter press' to ridiculous new lows...

Can you imagine the state of the editorial pitch meeting that produced this particular disgraceful angle to lead the story off with?

Also, compare the sub-head to what comes later...

Liz Truss, effectively writing Labour's attack lines for them: 'By 2022, the average Briton was no better off than they were in 2007, and the state was spending too much — almost half of the UK's national income.'

A genuine excerpt from Liz Truss's new book. The mind boggles, then plays chess for an encore.

This little exchange tells you everything you need to know about about Dan Hodges, and his off-the-charts hounding of Angela Rayner.

'Angela Rayner says she will step down if found to have committed crime'

The stakes get MUCH higher!

We will either see the largest collective omelette ever on the faces of the RW media.

Or a seismic resignation.

You know the clunky scene when the villain over-explains his nefarious plan to the hero?

Here's the Tory version...

What about the avalanche of far right fury the original claim provoked? Going to correct that too?

Every time you can't see a doctor or a dentist, or find a carer, or suffer the consequences of staff shortages in industries that were thriving (or surviving) before Brexit and before the harsh immigration environment, remember that this was deliberately engineered by the Tories.

'Hello, we're the RW media. Can we see your evidence?'
'No, of course not. It's private and none of your business.'

'Hello, we're the police. Can we see your evidence?'
'Yes, of course. Here it is. Is there anything else I can help you with, officer?'

What's so hard, Dan?

ETIAS will be a game changer and a stark reminder to British tourists of the Brexit consequences on travelling in and around the EU

'Police to investigate Angela Rayner over residency declaration'

Good news. If a second investigation finds nothing, surely even the gutter press have to stop digging...

And if she did break the law, there should be whatever consequences that implies. theguardian.com/politics/2024/…
