Nadhim Zahawi has faced his first Tory calls to quit after he admitted that 'errors” in his tax affairs had been deemed “careless” by HM Revenue & Customs

An ex-Cabinet minister has said Mr Zahawi's position is 'untenable'.Conservative Party chairman Nadhim Zahawi has faced his first Tory call to quit after he admitted that "errors” in his tax affairs had been deemed “careless” by HM Revenue & Customs.

He did not disclose the size of the settlement - reported to be an estimated £4.8 million including a 30% penalty - or confirm whether he paid a fine.
