Do people not even try to disguise ad hominems any more?
Not an ad-hom when it's a fact.Staines has four alcohol-related convictions [1] In 2002, Staines was banned from driving for 12 months for drink driving.[53] When he was convicted of the same offence six years later, he was asked in court by District Judge Timothy Stone whether he had an alcohol problem and replied: "Possibly." He was banned from driving for three years, as well as being given an 18-month supervision order and wearing an electronic tag for three months.[54][53]

I like reading things I disagree with. I used to read some of Guido's stuff in a know your enemy type way. I don't agree with his politics at all.
But attacking a man who has a problem bothers me. To be fair he attacks plenty and there's a bit of live by the sword die by the sword where I'm not exactly full of sympathy. But I'd not attack him for that when there are so many other reasons disagree with him.
I’d agree. If I thought he gave the slightest st about anyone else. But he doesn’t. He is the epitome of someone who will attack anyone for anything if it serves his purpose. But attacking a man who has a problem bothers me. To be fair he attacks plenty and there's a bit of live by the sword die by the sword where I'm not exactly full of sympathy. But I'd not attack him for that when there are so many other reasons disagree with him.
And I say that as someone who had an alcoholic for a father.
Like I stated, I read and watch stuff I disagree with because I think it's wrong to live in an echo chamber. I don't read Guido now because he's too far off the scale. But if he's an alcoholic I'll feel sorry for him. I've also had a few in the family. There are plenty of other reasons to disagree with him without dwelling on his drink problem.

Drink problems make it even worse. Why do alcoholics or those who drink too much get a sympathy vote or a free pass? They and their behaviours destroy families, relationships, their children, their partners, their friends, their parents, and sometimes even total strangers when an alcoholic gets behind the wheel, crashes and kills one or multiple people. Most people whose lives have been destroyed by an alcoholic would be quite happy to see them burn because of that alone since it's the alcohol that drives the intolerable behaviour.
Because it's a disease to be solved. Replace alco with any other condition and would you say the same? Would you be quite happy to see them burn?Drunk drivers are drunk drivers, fk them. No sympathy vote from me.
Anyway, I don't care. It's fking Guido. I'll not exhaust any more oxygen defending him.

2007 Purchased Property.
2010 Married, registered children to husbands address, stayed on electoral roll at own address, her brother moved to her address (reg on roll).
2015 Sold property.
So we are expecting to see here, permission from mortgage company for consent to let, rental from brother declared on tax returns, CGT declared in relevant tax year and relevant discount paid back to the council as she had not been living there.
Sold property in the year she was elected also, perhaps this was all pointed out to her by a gov official.
If's she's done the above should be no issue.....
As I see it if she's paid back any discount (if in the timescale) then there's no problem. 2010 Married, registered children to husbands address, stayed on electoral roll at own address, her brother moved to her address (reg on roll).
2015 Sold property.

If there was a 'mistake, I apologise' - I'm going to struggle with this as the T&Cs would have been clear.
She's explained it here

This just seems like a scraping the barrell smear campaign to me.

"All before I was a MP". Immaterial if the CGT and discount were paid, no problem. https://x.com/AngelaRayner/status/1762219581114884...

Buckle in because there’s going to be much more of this tripe as the GE looms.https://x.com/AngelaRayner/status/1762219581114884...

Does anyone remember the Labour activist assaulting a Tory adviser at St James hospital during the 2019 election campaign? A story broke that day about a child spending hours on the floor in A&E, so some wag at Tory HQ invented a story to deflect, unfortunately the leftie BBC fell for it and the real story was buried.
The Tories and their gutter press lost their moral compass when Bojo took the reins, we will witness worse now, that’s how far we have fallen.

Why would she have to pay CGT if her explanation is correct?
It all depends - She didn't live there for the entire period, she rented it to her brother. Because she said so?
