Rishi Sunak is facing a backlash after pumping money into the south of England and his own seat in the latest injection of levelling-up funds.
The Prime Minister denied that the £2.1billion for more than 100 projects across the country was 'pork barrel politics' - and insisted the North was receiving more funding per head.
But furious Tories branded it a "f**k up of epic proportions" and raised concerns that wealthy areas were getting levelling up cash designed to help left behind areas.
