PMQs: Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer clash over Liz Truss, Angela Rayner and tax policy

Tax was top of the agenda as Rishi Sunak and Sir Keir Starmer exchanged barbs at PMQs.
The Labour leader was keen to bring up the failures of former prime minister Liz Truss and her disastrous mini-budget, which the OBR said was based on unfunded tax cuts.
Rishi Sunak said Keir Starmer should spend more time inspecting the tax returns of Labour's deputy leader Angela Rayner, who is accused of not paying the correct tax on a house sale.

Sir Beer says Tories have pledged to scrap NI, without funding the cut. He is wrong. They have pledged to reduce it if/when it is economically possible to do so. Yet Sir Kneel pledges to increase spending by countless billions without increasing taxes. So WHO is promising UNFUNDED budgets?

[@alberttatlock1541]

Sir Kneel mentions mortgage payers having interest rate increases. He doesnt mention that mortgages rates are still equal or lower than virtually the whole of Labours 13 years, and expected to fall again in a couple of months. Rates have been at incredibly low rates for virtually the whole of the Tories years and have only recently gone up as a temporary measure, as they have done WORLDWIDE in countries which did not have Truss as PM.

Not going to lie, Rishi Sunak is actually doing a decent job. It's sad that folk are so angry about the downfall of Boris and the Liz Truss mess that they'll vote for literally anyone but. Not really fair on him, honestly.

once starmer becomes pm…. we will have to see how good the economy does!!!!….. I hate to say but sunak was right about lizz truss….. i hope he is not right again when he says that left’s policies will be disastrous for Britain…. because if that happens …….then It would be difficult to see Rishi sunak become the PM again.

In the meantime the working class suffers while they are in tit for tat discussions,wealthy politicians playing with other people’s lives because of their mistakes and brexit being one of them.
