Angela Rayner has denied she broke any rules over the donated use of a New York apartment owned by the Labour peer Lord Alli.

It has emerged that a fellow Labour MP, Sam Tarry, joined for parts of her stay at the apartment but was not named in the parliamentary declaration laying out details of the donation.

Ms Rayner told BBC One’s Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg: “I followed the rules.”

The Deputy Prime Minister also rejected the idea that Lord Alli was given anything in return for the donations he gifted to her.

Ms Rayner said: “I promised nothing and gave him nothing in return.”
