Welsh Conservative’s 20mph, police and £1bn rail cash pledges

The Conservatives will also promise to give every community across Wales an additional neighbourhood police officer.

On Friday, Mr Sunak’s second visit of the campaign to Wales, the prime minister will accuse Welsh Labour of being solely focused on “making sure that it stays in power”.

“Whether that is by introducing votes at 16”, in Senedd and local council elections, “adding more members to the Senedd”, which is expanding from 60 to 96 members in 2026, or “ignoring votes of no confidence in its first minister”, he will say.

Since surprising much of the political world, including many of his own party activists, by calling the election last month Mr Sunak has failed to achieve a narrowing in Labour’s opinion poll lead.

His Welsh secretary, David TC Davies, who will be alongside him on Friday, has said the polls are “clearly pointing at a large Labour majority” but he doubts “whether it’s going to be with any great levels of enthusiasm” from voters.
