The party's leader Sir Keir Starmer has previouslyto"come clean" over whether his household had benefited from any money from Russia, at a time when the UK has been applying sanctions pressure to the Kremlin.
Mr Sunak has bristled at the focus on his wife, telling the BBC last week that he found it"very upsetting" and comparing himself with actor Will Smith, who responded angrily when his wife was mocked during the Oscars ceremony. Asked last month on Sky News whether his family was going against advice given to companies over connections with Russia, he said:"I'm an elected politician, and I'm here to talk to you about what I'm responsible for. My wife is not."The latest revelations come on the same day as a YouGov poll showing the chancellor's popularity had plunged since his spring statement, taking his popularity below that of Sir Keir for the first time since he became leader.
Mr Sunak has been accused of not doing enough to tackle the cost of living crisis with energy and fuel prices soaring and the impact of the Ukraine war set to intensify the squeeze.
