No.
There is nothing on or in a normal insurance policy that requires the vehicle to be taxed.

Technically you have insurance and they cannot refuse to cover you
but
Most insurance companies work on the assumption that without tax you shouldn't be on the road and try to refuse to pay
but
You are legally entitled to drive an untaxed car to and from an MOT that is pre-booked provided that you have insurance. Subsequently to a repairer should it fail the MOT
so
How legally can they say insurance invalid
now
That said if you are in this situation I can only wish you good luck as the might of the insurers is normally stronger that that of us

The tax shouldn't make any difference provided the car is insured and roadworthy. The insurers will look a bit harder at the case if there is any irregularity and might try to withhold the comprehensive bit of the cover, but they shouldn't fail to pay 3rd party claim

No. It does not invalidate your insurance cover. Read your policy document. The conditions are that you hold a current motor driving licence for that class of vehicle and that you are not disqualified or suspended from driving.Your other answers are stupid beyond belief.

Yes to be in possession of up to date tax to have the car on the road , otherwise you are driving illegally !!
Your insurance only covers you when driving legally

Oh dear you are in trouble if you have no tax, you might have been already spotted by the UK police's ANPR (Automatic Number Plate Recognition). But also there is up to £1000 fine to pay has well.

Yes it is illegal to drive a car without displaying a valid tax disc. Your policy will cover you only if the car is legally on the road.
Ja.
