With partygate and Sue Gray's report into it due out, Prime Minister Boris Johnson has managed to escape the drama with a visit to Newtown.

The PM was attending the Welsh Conservatives Conference held at Theatr Hafren.
His visit included meeting some of the staff at the site and college before giving a speech alongside MS, Russell George, and MP, Craig Williams.
He also visited Hiltop Honey in the town.
