The leader of the Welsh Conservatives has insisted he isn't 'at odds' with Rishi Sunak after discussing the controversial HS2 funding issue with the Prime Minister. Andrew RT Davies spoke to Mr Sunak at the Welsh Conservative Party conference in Newport over the weekend and their conversation included a chat about the £5bn Wales won't be receiving due to HS2 being classed as an 'England and Wales' project.
In an interview with WalesOnline, the Welsh party leader spoke about his relationship with the PM, why he focuses so much on 'culture war' issues, and his vocal opposition to the Welsh Government's policy pilot of giving £1,600 a month to young people leaving care, including some asylum seekers.
Speaking on the second and final day of the conference in Newport's ICC, Mr Davies defended his bold claim that the UK's economy is better off thanks to Brexit and directly addressed the damning opinion polls showing how far behind Labour the Welsh Tories are.
