Former chancellor Rishi Sunak told Conservative Party members he would ‘undo’ funding that was put into deprived urban areas to help wealthy towns in a leaked video from last month.
Details of the video, which was filmed on July 29 while Sunak spoke to Tories in Tunbridge Wells, Kent, were first revealed by the New Statesman today (August 5).
In the video, Sunak said he had been able to start ‘changing funding formulas’ to ensure areas like Tunbridge Wells, where the average house price was almost £530,000 at the end of last year, could get ‘the funding they deserve’.
