Angela Rayner - and the rest of us - now face waiting game

The article discusses the ongoing investigation into Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner's conduct by the independent adviser on ministers' interests, Sir Laurie Magnus. The investigation was prompted by reports that Rayner had attended a meeting with the chief executive of a company that had secured a government contract. The article notes that Magnus's previous investigations have resulted in the resignations of two ministers, suggesting that the outcome of this inquiry could have significant consequences for Rayner. However, the article also emphasizes the impartiality and thoroughness of Magnus's investigations, indicating that the final decision will be based on a careful and unbiased assessment of the facts. The article concludes by stating that both Rayner and the public now face a "waiting game" to see the outcome of the investigation, which will ultimately determine whether any wrongdoing has occurred and what, if any, actions may be taken as a result.
