However, Labour has added to Mr Sunak’s troubles by claiming that Sir Keir Starmer has never paid a tax fine. Within hours, No. 10 issued a statement declaring that “the prime minister has never paid a penalty to HMRC.”

Mr Sunak is under increasing scrutiny after retaining Mr Zahawi in his cabinet while ordering a probe into his tax affairs. Mr Zahawi on the other hand, cleared an estimated £4.8 million debt with HMRC as Chancellor, including a reported £1 million penalty.

After The Independent discovered last year that his wife had questionable non-dom status, Mr Sunak has agreed to provide his personal tax returns in an effort to increase openness.

Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer attempted to link Mr Sunak’s management of the present situation to his rich wife Akshata Murty’s non-domiciled status during Prime Minister’s Questions.

“You wouldn't expect me to wade into the prime minister's tax matters since they are private,” she explained.

“An individual's tax affairs, regardless of who they are, remain secret,” she noted.

She also refused to agree to disclose his tax records for the previous six years, as David Cameron did while he was prime minister.
