John McDonnell to attack £100bn tax giveaway to UK’s billionaires
Shadow chancellor’s speech to reveal one in three of the super-rich are Tory party donors
The shadow chancellor, John McDonnell, has ramped up his attack on the super-rich, describing their wealth as “obscene”, as Labour unveiled research showing one in three billionaires in the UK have made donations to the Tory party.
McDonnell is due to take a swipe at the richest people in the country in a speech on Tuesday and will also set out the tax breaks billionaires have benefited from under successive Conservative governments.
