Rayner says 'working-class people" don't want hand-outs.

 

Angela Rayner

What a hypocrite! Angela Rayner is no stranger to accepting handouts and freebies but she says "working-class people" don't want hand-outs.

In June 2024, multi-millionaire Lord Waheed Ali, gave Rayner £3,550 for clothes. She also enjoyed free use of Lord Ali's $2.5m luxury penthouse in in Manhattan, during a five-day personal holiday with her lover and 'soulmate', Sam Tarry, in December 2023. According to the parliamentary register of interests, Rayner said she was given a flat as accommodation for five nights to enjoy a “personal holiday” which she said was worth an estimated £1,250 overall. She declared that Lord Ali, her fairy godmother, had asked for nothing and got nothing in return.

In 2022, The American fashion brand Adrianna Papell, gave Rayner 11 dresses costing £945. Angela Rayner was also given clothing worth £2,230 from the luxury brand ME+EM.

Angela Rayner reminds me of Moliere’s sanctimonious scoundrel Tartuffe, who was an impostor and a hypocrite.

I'm not sure the word hypocrite adequately reflects what she said. There must be a  moral and intellectual foundation to the operation of policy. From a practical point of view, this is a person who describes herself as being brought up in poverty. So one might expect her to have an insight into the need for a social security system and the moral requirements to provide that support for those in need.  Instead, she percedes to pontificate on the desire of every working class person to aspire to be self-reliant. This merely demonstrates a fundamental lack of understanding of personal ability, opportunity, the class system and the rudimentary causes of dislocation, marginalization and social control.
