Chancellor Rachel Reeves announces governemnt support for a third runway at Heathrow with an invitation for proposals to be brought forward by the summer.
Rachel Reeves has U-turned and agreed to publish her private tax return after initially trying to keep her personal finances a secret.
She added: 'Chancellors and prime ministers haven't published their tax returns in the past, and I don't have any plans to do so.'However Tory leader Kemi Badenoch has 'no plans' to publish her tax return. Last February Sir Keir revealed he paid almost £100,000 in tax in the previous year - with more than half of the Labour leader's tax bill coming from the sale of a donkey field he partly-owned.
It was previously reported that the Labour leader had sold a plot of land he had bought in the 1990s for his parents, who used it to care for neglected donkeys. In a summary of his tax affairs released by Labour, Sir Keir was shown to have paid £44,308 in income tax and £52,688 in Capital Gains Tax in 2022/23
