Taxpayers’ money has been used to fund five-star hotels for ministers “living the high life” on overseas trips, Labour has claimed following an analysis of government spending.
In 2021 the Treasury, then under Rishi Sunak, spent £3,217 at the five-star Hotel Danieli in Venice, and £1,361 at Hotel Bonvecchiati, for the then chancellor and 11 other government officials at a G20 meeting.
