Police are investigating whether Labour’s deputy leader broke β€œany offences”, including under electoral law, after Tory MPs alleged that she may have given false information about her main residence - an ex council house she purchased - a decade ago. Rayner, who has promised to resign if she is found to have committed a crime, said she β€œfollowed the rules at all times”. But how damaging could this row be to her - and to her party.
