PMQs full exchange: Starmer and Sunak clash over Zahawi and violence against women

Rishi Sunak and Keir Starmer clashed over Nadhim Zahawi’s tax affairs during PMQs on Wednesday.

The prime minister was accused of being “hopelessly weak” in his response to the issue, and his failure to sack the minister.

Mr Sunak was also challenged by the Labour leader on the “fatal failures” in Zara Aleena’s murder investigation.
