Starmer refuses to rule out wealth tax in Commons

Sir Keir Starmer declines to rule out a wealth tax after Kemi Badenoch accuses him of “flirting” with the idea.

The prime minister avoids a direct answer, instead defending Labour’s economic record and criticising past Tory policies.

Badenoch warns such a tax would hit savings, pensions and homes, calling it a “tax on aspiration”.
