The Labour leader earned £126,154 in salary as an MP and leader of the opposition, on which he paid £43,103 in income tax, according to his newly published tax return for 2021-22.
He also earned nearly £85,000 in capital gains from the sale of a house that he helped his sister to buy. On that, he paid £23,930 in tax.
It brought his total tax bill to £67,033 on £211,620 of income – effectively giving him an overall tax rate of 31.67 per cent, The Independent has calculated.
Sir Keir published his tax return a day after Rishi Sunak’s was released – which coincided with Boris Johnson’s dramatic appearance before the privileges committee to try to save his political career.

Emma Hayes and the life behind a winning machine
Emma Hayes managed to find a way to reflect on her achievements while seeing the bigger picture. At Wembley last year, as Hayes sat with another winner's medal around her neck this time after Chelsea defeated Manchester United to win their third FA Cup in a row - there was a moment where she paused from the relentlessness of football management and its daily demands to focus on a wider journey. \"When I sit at home alone and think about the work we do every day, and the sacrifices we all make, I know I've given my life to it,\" she reflected.
