Welsh first minister expecting more money for railways from PM as she slams 'unfair' HS2 funding The first minister of Wales has revealed she is expecting more money from the prime minister for rail infrastructure in the country.
The first minister said she hopes to see additional funding before the Senedd elections next May, but it is unclear how much cash Sir Keir Starmer is willing to give his colleagues in Wales.
Despite no plans for HS2 infrastructure to run through Wales, the project was categorised as an England and Wales project by the previous Conservative government.
Speaking exclusively to Sky News, Eluned Morgan hailed HS2 as "unfair" and said she is "expecting to see some uplift in terms of rail infrastructure and financing".
A UK government source said the government would "signal a direction of travel" on transport in Wales in the coming days, and the issue will be a "priority" in the spending review in the spring.
