Ms Rayner's charges against her were investigated by Tory MPs last night. In a letter sent by the party's deputy chairman James Daly, there was a "pressing public interest" in connection with the property owned by her.

Experts said if Ms Rayner was not telling the truth when she said her house, rather than her husband's, was her main home, she would face about £1,500 in tax, as well as potential criminal charges for making a false statement on the electoral roll.

In the aftermath of the Met's David Carrick investigation, the National Police Chiefs' Council will require all services to check their officers against national police databases to help identify anyone who has'slipped through the net' before vetting protocols were tightened. Home Secretary Suella Braverman has also requested that the College of Policing develop the legislative framework for police vetting, raising the expectations that all police departments must adhere to stricter and clearer. 'David Carrick's sickening cases are a stain on the police, and he should never have been allowed to serve as an officer for so long,' she said in a tweet.' We're taking immediate action to ensure that predatory people are not only rooted out of the service, but also that vetting and inspection procedures are enhanced to ensure that they do not join the police in the first place.

David Carrick, a met rapist, sent selfies of himself posing with his weapon to a random lady

www.dailymail.co.uk, January 18, 2023
This week, David Carrick, 47, who is better known to colleagues as 'B***ard Dave,' confessed to 80 crimes while serving with the service between 2003 and 2020. However, a new victim has since come forward, claiming that Carrick, now one of Britain's worst ever sex offenders, assaulted her 30 years ago, a decade before he became a policeman. Any other potential victims are now being encouraged to come forward, particularly as there is a six-year absence in his convicted offending, which they fear will lead to more offences. It came as Carrick's selfies of him sporting a pistol surfaced today (pictured top), after he sent them to a random woman who had been sent by mistake in a 'bizarre' wrong number mix-up. Meanwhile, MPs from both sides of the aisle are mounting calls for a separate inquiry into how Carrick was allowed to act with impunity for nearly 20 years, despite being a witness in a domestic attack a year before joining the Met and the subject of repeated allegations of predatory conduct. Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, is also trying to ensure that Carrick does not receive his gold-plated pension when he hits the age of 60.
