Shell has revealed it will pay about $2bn (1.7bn) in UK and EU windfall taxes for the final quarter of 2022 - the first time it has paid UK tax for five years.

The oil company had previously sparked anger in October when it said it had not paid any UK windfall taxes because of heavy investment in the North Sea.
