Zahawi: There must be an independent investigation to get to the bottom of this

23 Jan 2023

EMBARGO: Immediate release

Responding to the latest statement from Nadhim Zahawi on his tax affairs, Liberal Democrat Deputy Leader Daisy Cooper said:

"Zahawi and his Conservative Cabinet colleagues are arrogantly trying to brush this under the carpet. 

"There are facts that still need to be established so there must be an independent investigation to get to the bottom of this. The British public has lost all faith in Conservative Ministers to tell the truth after years of scandal. 

"The public will be rightly suspicious of the whole saga surrounding Zahawi's tax affairs. 

"Rishi Sunak is proving powerless to stop the daily drip-feed of sleaze from the top of Government."
