PM: LABOUR WILL RUN RIOT WITH YOUR MONEY

RISHI Sunak is warning voters that Labour will "run riot with your money" after the party refused to rule out council tax hikes and a host of other rises.

He said Sir Keir Starmer's pledges are a "con" following an admission that its manifesto is not the "sum total" of its spending plans.

The Prime Minister insisted that Labour's refusal to crack down on the bloated welfare bill also means it is inevitable they will put up taxes to fund spending plans.

The Conservatives additionally warned that Sir Keir's energy policy will leave the UK with at least a £4.5billion budget black hole in lost tax revenues.

He is committed to ending new licensing for oil and gas in the North Sea, which the Tories say will deter investment and risk up to 200,000 jobs - something Labour denies.

The Prime Minister told the Express: "Labour has admitted their manifesto is nothing more than a con.

"At this election, Keir Starmer is asking for you and your family to sign a blank cheque, and we all know what he wants to do with it: Put up your taxes so he can run riot with your money.

"They won't admit it but the only way Labour can pay for their £38.5billion spending black hole is by hitting working families with a £2,094 tax bill.

"Labour will tax your job, your car and your family home.

"They will even drag pensioners into a retirement tax for the first time in history. You name it, Labour will tax it, because raising taxes is in their DNA.

"We are the only party who will take the bold action needed to cut tax while Labour's tax-trap manifesto will cost families. So if you think Labour will win, start saving."
