Johnson clashes with Welsh government over no-deal Brexit

Boris Johnson blew into Wales today, just after an opinion poll suggested the Conservatives under his leadership are now more popular than Labour.

Farmers’ leaders warned there could be “civil unrest” and accused the Prime Minister of playing Russian roulette.
