Sir Keir Starmer has told local councils to “get on” with fixing potholes in their areas as Labour pledges an extra £500 million to boost repairs.

Authorities will each receive a cut of the £1.6bn set aside for road maintenence last year, as Labour tops up the fund by nearly 50 per cent from last year.
