Apparently ‘our’ chancellor’s family is SO rich they knock Mrs Queen off the top slot!

Obviously the right man to be telling impoverished fellow-citizens how to handle their pennies.

Why as he failed to disclose fully the financial interests of his wife and his in-laws?
10.44, You have certainly upset one of the Chancellors fans on here Allen.
i am no one's fan, i merely stated that this money that so captivates allen isn't sunaks by right.
TLC 11.03, Because he is a Con . In their minds it doesn't apply to them , each one thinks he is a snowflake.
// Boris Johnson’s independent adviser on ministerial interests was “completely satisfied with the Chancellor’s propriety of arrangements”, adding Sunak has “followed the ministerial code to the letter”.//
he married into it. Perhaps all dealings from right and left should be disclosed, but they aren;t
always. i should have added

you said "Obviously the right man to be telling impoverished fellow-citizens how to handle their pennies.

no he doesn't.
TCL: I thought it was their own finances they had to disclose, not their relatives.
// Labour took a million Kids out of poverty //

I can't find a link to support that. but I can find plenty of links to Labour's policy of flogging off the nation's gold reserves, and their policy of tax raids on the nation's pension pots. If kids were indeed taken out of poverty, it was at the expense of the nation's pensioners.
//The former human rights barrister is said to be a millionaire - although his Wikipedia page removed this fact ahead of his leadership launch.//
I wonder why he did that,was he afraid that Labour voters would not vote for him?
danny, quite possibly, we know the left hate success.
TTT, the Register states, "The List sets out interests currently held by Ministers, or their close family members, which
are additional to those already disclosed in the Parliamentary Registers and which are, or might reasonably be perceived to be, directly relevant to a Minister’s ministerial
responsibilities."
//Labour took a million Kids out of poverty//

Since Labour rifled their parents’ pension pots and abolished the low rate income tax for low earners, I can only assume that food banks, which first popped up on Labour’s watch, came to the rescue. Hurrah! Three cheers for Labour!
fair enough TCL, seems a bit intrusive.
under the last real Labour government, the basic rate of income tax was 33%. Who mostly lowered it from then? yep the one they hate TGL. Some people have very short selective memories.
yes they do
they seem to hate anyone who has success, wealth, that seems barking mad to me
The point which is being missed about Sunak's ability to do his job despite is wealth is that he married into money, he wasn't born into it. Although it seems his parents were not exactly poor, I suspect he's seen all both wealth and hardship over the years.
