Rishi Sunak has sacked Tory Chairman Nadhim Zahawi for "serious" breaches of the ministerial code after the devastating findings of an ethics probe.
It comes after days of damaging rows over the tax affairs of Mr Zahawi, who was appointed to the position at Tory HQ in October by the Prime Minister.
The row surrounding Mr Zahawi centres on a settlement and penalty he paid to HMRC while he was Chancellor in the dying days of Boris Johnson's Government.
