Chancellor Jeremy Hunt has been grilled by a former Tory Cabinet minister over whether he’s “embarrassed” and “ashamed” of the UK’s high taxation levels.
It comes as the Government faces pressure from Conservatives - including former PM Boris Johnson - to scrap a planned increase in corporation tax in April.
Appearing on a GB News, Mr Hunt faced questions from the Tory ex-Cabinet minister Esther McVey and backbencher Philip Davies, ahead of next week’s Budget.
