Phillipson defends Rayner over tax row and family issues

Education Secretary Bridget Phillipson expresses confidence in deputy prime minister Angela Rayner amid scrutiny over unpaid stamp duty. She highlights Rayner's "complicated" family arrangements, including a court order linked to her disabled son, which made it difficult to speak openly. Phillipson says Rayner has sought fresh legal advice, is complying fully with HMRC, and is doing "the right thing" to ensure transparency. Report by Covellm.
