Angela Rayner has been overlooked for the use of Dorneywood mansion, a 21-room residence in Buckinghamshire typically designated for the second-highest-ranking minister in the government. Instead, Rachel Reeves, the current Chancellor, has been granted exclusive access to the property, following a precedent set by her six immediate predecessors. This decision marks a departure from the approach taken by former Prime Minister Tony Blair, who allocated the mansion to his deputy, John Prescott. Rayner has often cited Prescott as a source of inspiration in her political career, making this decision particularly notable.
