Angela Rayner has told ITV News she has been cleared of any wrongdoing concerning her tax affairs. The former Deputy Prime Minister says she “never wanted to avoid paying tax” and she had been “hurt” by the controversy, adding: “It hurt me because I had to then talk about my son and his personal circumstances...It's not fair on him.”
