Rishi Sunak has been accused of carrying out the "Great Welsh Train Robbery" amid claims the UK Government is depriving Wales of £6 billion.

Ms Saville Roberts told Prime Minister's Questions:"Incredibly, any traveller wanting to go by train from north to south Wales has to go via England."Now, the PM talks about running away with other people's money, but his Government is depriving Wales to the tune of £6 billion by ruling that north-south England rail links, like HS2, somehow benefit Wales.Prime Minister Mr Sunak replied:" knows how transport matters are handled in Wales.

"We're happy to continue those conversations, many of those are transportation projects, and I think, hopefully, she'll join me in saying what the people of Wales do not need is the Labour Welsh Government plan to ban all building of new roads."
