These are good points but the “optics” of a PM or Chancellor’s spouse paying tax outside the country they reside in is just gross.

Over the last 20 odd years I could’ve easily set up my company registered office in Jersey and taken advantage of their very favourable tax regime.

It’s not a good mix to have a multi billionaire couple in Number 11 who are choosing to run their lives this way whilst at the same time citizens in the U.K. are beyond breaking point and yet he still brings in additional taxation on them.

Initially I thought Sunak did well at the start of the pandemic but I called him completely wrong and I’ll openly admit that.

He needs to go and go quickly, we need. Progressive Chancellor with a low tax agenda who has a laser focus on large companies and corporations.

If nothing else it’s just as well his lack of nous and total hubris has been found out now and not when he becomes PM.
