Rishi Sunak gave interviews to local stations in Yorkshire where he is chairing his cabinet meeting this morning
Rishi Sunak is now on BBC Radio Lincolnshire. Scott Dalton is interviewing him, and asks why it is taking so long for the HS2 money to go to transport projects in the north.
Sunak says he thinks the money has been redirected quite quickly.

And that’s because we’re the most successful multi-ethnic democracy in the world.

That’s not an easy thing to do. But I think we do it better than any other country, and we need to work hard to protect that.
