Rishi Sunak should scrap the non-domicile tax status used by the wealthy to avoid paying UK tax, said the new Trades Union Congress (TUC) leader.

Speaking to The Independent, Paul Nowak said Labour was right to focus on the unfairness of non-dom rules, which allows British residents to skip taxes on their foreign income for 15 years.

“I fundamentally believe that if you live and work in the UK then you should pay your tax in the UK – it’s a simple as that,” said the new TUC chief, who takes over from Frances O’Grady.
