Live PMQs: Angela Rayner accuses Tories of being ‘obsessed’ with her council house controversy during heated exchange with Dowden

Labour’s deputy leader Angela Rayner has taken a stand against the Tories, accusing them of being “obsessed” with her living arrangements during a heated session of PMQs with Oliver Dowden. Rayner used the opportunity to address the government on its housing record, specifically calling out delays in justice for those facing no-fault evictions.

“The public want to know what this government is going to do about theirs,” Rayner asserted, highlighting the importance of addressing housing issues that affect many individuals across the country.

In response, Deputy Prime Minister Oliver Dowden defended the government’s actions, stating that they are committed to delivering on their manifesto promises, including addressing the issue of no-fault evictions. He emphasized that MPs would be voting on the matter later that day.

The exchange between Rayner and Dowden showcased the ongoing tensions between the Labour Party and the Conservative government, with Rayner not holding back in her criticism. The session highlighted the importance of addressing housing issues and ensuring justice for those facing precarious living situations.

As the political landscape continues to evolve, it is clear that housing policies will remain a key point of contention between the two major parties. Stay tuned for further updates on this developing story.
