Labour has been pushing Rishi Sunak to call a snap election in May
Anneliese Dodds has claimed that the Labour party "wants to see taxes come down" but will 'be upfront and clear" about the money needed.
Speaking to GB News she said: "What we've seen, sadly, under the Conservatives is taxes rising to their highest level. In 70 years we've had 25 tax rises under the Conservatives.
"Labour always wants to see taxes on working people reducing overtime. And what I just talked about there was about being really clear and upfront about how we would pay for the additional teachers that we would put into the schools that 90 per cent of children attend.
"We're being very upfront about those figures, about where we would obtain that money, as I said, by cancelling that removal of VAT and business rates for private schools.
"I think it's quite right that Labour's being upfront about how we would pay for those promises. As I said, quite a big contrast with what we've seen from the Conservatives over recent months and years."
