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".

The prime minister has hosted a roundtable with the creators of TV series Adolescence, to discuss how to stop young people from being influenced by toxic content online. Sitting next to Jack Thorne, one of its writers, Sir Keir Starmer said the show is "a torch that shines intensely brightly on a combination of issues that many people don't know how to respond to", but admits that, as a dad, he did not find it "not easy viewing".
