However, she said it had become clear that there were many who believed it was not compatible with her husband’s position in charge of the nation’s finances. The spokeswoman said Sunak continued to file US tax returns, “but specifically as a non-resident, in full compliance with the law”, having obtained a green card when he lived and worked in the States.

Labour said there were still “far too many troubling questions” to be answered and called for “full transparency” from Sunak regarding his financial affairs.
