Lettings agency takes blame in Rachel Reeves licence row

In a recent controversy, a lettings agency has taken responsibility for a licensing issue involving Rachel Reeves, the chancellor. The agency admitted that a staff member had offered to apply for the necessary license for Reeves to rent out her family home but ultimately failed to do so. This situation has sparked political debate, particularly among the Conservatives, who are calling for Reeves to be dismissed if she indeed violated any laws. The incident highlights the importance of compliance in property rentals and the potential political ramifications for public figures.
