Angela Rayner will leave the government after she admitted to Sky News that she underpaid tax on the purchase of a new home, Sky News understands.
Our political editor Beth Rigby has also learned that she will resign as deputy leader of the Labour Party.
Sir Keir Starmer had offered his deputy his full support, saying he was "proud" to work alongside her – but she has now stood down.
