"Sunak Criticizes Starmer on Taxes Amid Tight Election Debate"

In the first televised debate ahead of the July 4 General Election, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak criticized Labour's tax policies, claiming they would result in a £2,000 tax rise for every working family. Labour leader Keir Starmer countered that the Conservatives had raised taxes to a 70-year high and promised only "fully costed" policies. Both leaders pledged not to raise income tax or national insurance. Polls indicate a potential Labour victory, marking their first parliamentary majority in 14 years.
