Sir Keir Starmer has insisted there “won’t be any surprises on tax” under a Labour government.
His comments come after the Tories have repeatedly said Labour has a £38.5 billion black hole in their spending promises which would necessitate a £2,000 tax raid on each UK household.
However, during a campaign visit in Camden, north London, today, Sir Keir promised he would not raise taxes, aside from those already proposed.
He said: “There won’t be any surprises on tax. All of our plans are fully costed, fully funded, none of them involving tax rises over and above those that we have already set out.”
The Prime Minister previously highlighted a Treasury analysis that suggested there was a major black hole in Labour’s spending approach, arguing it would inevitably lead to higher taxes.
Sir Keir denied the claims and accused Mr Sunak of breaking the ministerial code and lying.
Mr Sunak denied that he misled the public over the warning.
