NADHIM Zahawi has admitted he paid a tax settlement after HM Revenue & Customs disagreed with the allocation of founder shares his father took when he set up YouGov.
The Tory party chairman released a statement on Saturday to “address some of the confusion about my finances” after reports that he paid a penalty as part of a multimillion-pound tax settlement.
Zahawi said that when he set up the YouGov polling company 22 years ago, his father took founder shares.
