Starmer's Deputy Resigns Amid Tax Scandal

British Deputy Prime Minister Angela Rayner resigned after admitting to underpaying £40,000 in property taxes. An ethics report found she acted in good faith but failed to seek proper tax advice. Her resignation is a major setback for Prime Minister Keir Starmer, already facing low approval ratings and criticism from both the left and right. Rayner's departure leaves a void in Labour's efforts to counter the rise of right-wing populism, potentially shifting the party further left.
