=== Attacks on free speech ===
On 27 September 2022, Angela Rayner joined forces with the far-left [[Islamist]] Mayor of London [[Sadiq Khan]] in pushing HM Government to pass [[Orwellian]] regulations to crack down on so-called "hate speech". Nearly 3,500 people in the UK were arrested in 2017 for "offensive" online content, but Rayner appears to believe that the current laws are not draconian enough.<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/tech/2022/09/27/leading-labour-politicians-khan-rayner-demand-regulation-of-online-hate/ Leading Labour Politicians Khan, Rayner, Demand Regulation of ‘Online Hate’]</ref> Months later, Rayner hypocritically lashed out at the UK's left-wing biased state broadcaster the BBC, accusing them of an "assault on free speech" because they took woke virtue signaller [[Gary Lineker]] of the air (which she blamed on pressure from Tory MPs) after his [[Historical revisionism|historic revisionist]] comments comparing the Tories to the Nazis.<ref>[https://twitter.com/AngelaRayner/status/1634476059646214146?lang=en The BBC’s cowardly decision to take Gary Lineker off air is an assault on free speech in the face of political pressure from Tory politicians.

=== Foreign policy ===
Rayner appears to think (incorrectly) that Russia carried out a nuclear attack on the UK. During a speech in 2022 in which she tried to defend communist sympathiser and two-time Labour general election loser Jeremy Corbyn, who attempted to divert blame for the Salisbury poisonings 2018 away from Moscow, Rayner said "...it was an absolute disgrace that President Putin thought he could come on UK soil and use weapons, nuclear weapons, in that way". Neither Vladimir Putin nor any Russian leader has ever used nuclear weapons in Britain.<ref>[https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2022/03/24/wut-far-left-deputy-labour-leader-says-russia-has-already-used-nukes-in-britain/ Wut?
