‘Cheating catches up with you’: Angela Rayner pushes Johnson over Owen Paterson vote

Guardian News published this video item, entitled “‘Cheating catches up with you’: Angela Rayner pushes Johnson over Owen Paterson vote” – below is their description.

Angela Rayner pushed the prime minister over an amendment that would pause the suspension of Owen Paterson from the Commons for 30 days. The Conservative MP subsequently escaped suspension and a possible byelection after the amendment passed.

The former cabinet minister was found to have committed an “egregious” breach of lobbying rules during meetings and conversations with the Food Standards Agency and Department for International Development, while he was being paid more than £100,000 by two firms – Randox and Lynn’s Country Foods.

Rayner said it was one rule for Boris Johnson’s party and one for everyone else. Jibing at Johnson about Donald Trump being ‘the prime minister’s hero’, Rayner added that the public would not stand for cheating

In This Story: Vote

Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.

In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
