Labour accuses Sunak family of avoiding tens of millions in taxes

Chancellor obfuscated while imposing steep tax rises on ordinary Britons, says shadow minister

Rishi Sunak and his family potentially avoided paying tens of millions of pounds in taxes through his wife's non-dom" status while the chancellor imposed tax rises on the public, Labour has said.

The chancellor's wife, Akshata Murty, gave in to mounting pressure on Friday, announcing she would pay UK taxes as Sunak's position began to appear increasingly tenuous.
