Sunak says Labour will hike taxes by £2000 if elected
Rishi Sunak says "we have three days to save Britain from the danger of a Labour government.
A Labour government that would hike up everyone's taxes by 2000 pounds" as he delivers a speech in Hinckley.
The prime minister also says that he "understands" frustrations with him and the Tory party, admitting they "haven't got everything perfectly right", before adding that the upcoming election is "a choice about the future of our country and what that future means for you and your family".
