Deputy Labour leader and Greater Manchester MP Angela Rayner has called on Rishi Sunak to sack Nadhim Zahawi as Conservative Party chairman after reports he paid a penalty to HMRC as part of a multi-million pound tax settlement.

Speaking to the BBC this morning Rayner said that his position is untenable

She told the Breakfast programme that Nadhim Zahawi’s story doesn’t add up.

“The position of the man who was until recently in charge of the UK’s tax system and who this prime minister appointed Conservative Party Chair is now untenable.

“It’s time for Rishi Sunak to put his money where his mouth is and dismiss Nadhim Zahawi from his cabinet.”
