Has to caugh up.......The famous fill our own pockets labour party........Love it when Labour louts point fingers then get caught! All politicians are just pathetic useless idiots; no wonder this country is spiralling out of control
Caught red-eared! Labour deputy leader Angela Rayner repays £139 expenses claim for 'ANOTHER pair of Apple AirPods'.
Rayner has repaid a £139 expenses claim after seemingly purchasing another pair of Apple AirPods.
The Deputy Labour leader charged the sum to the taxpayer for 'earphone for office' in December.
However, the money was repaid to the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority (Ipsa) this week after questions were raised about the purchase. Tories said Ms Rayner acted because she was 'caught red-handed'.
Although the expenses entry does not specify details of the kit, £139 is the retail price of second generation AirPods.
Ms Rayner's office did not deny the earphones were Apple tech.
A spokesman for the MP said: 'These costs have been covered privately and Ipsa has been reimbursed accordingly.'
Sources stressed that the repayment was entirely voluntary and no rules had been broken.
Can you imagine the fuss Labour would make out if this if the boot were on the other foot. It's all Starmer would talk about at PMQ's and all Labour MP's would be briefed to mention it at every opportunity. I can see it now "Tory MP uses expenses to pay for an item and pays it back quickly", doesn't really work does it?

Just proves she has no working class credentials, or she would buy secondhand and washed any old earwax off.

"The deputy Labour leader billed a total of £139, the same price as a pair of second-generation AirPods, to the parliamentary expenses watchdog last year.
Ms Rayner was reimbursed the full cost of the electronics on Dec 12 when it was approved by Ipsa chiefs.
However, when contacted by The Sun newspaper on Wednesday, she decided to repay the cost of the product in full".

A Tory MP would have denied it Well done Raynor.😂 Supporting the theft of public money from people who can afford these luxuries out of their own pockets is disgraceful. Also, this is a shameless Labour MP, not a Tory.

My employer pays all my IT and communication costs, even where it includes entertainment. But the Mrs and kids' phones and contracts are paid for by me...

Did you not read the part that said she paid it back? How can it be wrong if the body that approves these things agreed to it, she could have kept the money and just carried on but she didn't she paid it back. Again I say, well done Raynor.

She was obviously ordered to once exposed. She could have used her own card, but instead, with her being a typical greedy and highly hypocritical far-lefty mingling with the champaign socialists, she tried to pass the cost on to other people.
