Prime Minister visits North East where he inspects potholes and promises to improve Britain's roads

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak made a trip to the North East today to look at the state of the roads as part of his campaign for the May elections.

Mr Sunak visited Firthmoor Community Centre in Darlington on Friday (March 31) where he met with Tees Valley Mayor Ben Houchen, head of Darlington Council Jonathan Dulston and Darlington MP Peter Gibson to discuss the Conservative Manifesto, which includes a promise to improve local roads.

He then took to the streets to inspect the conditions of the roads in the area and pledged that there would be more cash to fix potholes across the country.
