Police review decision not to investigate Angela Rayner after Tory complaint

James Daly asked Greater Manchester police to examine Conservative claims Labour’s deputy leader did not declare main residence accurately

The police are reviewing a decision not to investigate Labour’s deputy leader, Angela Rayner, over claims she may have broken electoral law.

The move to “reassess” a decision not to launch an investigation earlier this month was confirmed by Greater Manchester police (GMP) on Wednesday following a complaint by a Conservative MP, James Daly, about the force’s handling of the issue.
