Labour’s Eluned Morgan, who was attending the Council of Nations and Regions meeting alongside metro mayors and fellow first ministers, says she made the case for more funding ahead of the spending review next month.

Baroness Morgan says her meeting with Sir Keir was “constructive” and she was “grateful” to him for listening to the public on winter fuel payments.

On Wednesday, Sir Keir said he would ease the cut to the winter fuel payment, something Ms Morgan previously called for.

“I’ve made it clear I’d like the vast majority of people who have received it before to receive it again,” she said.

It remains unclear where exactly the payment threshold will be.

She also said the controversial two-child benefit cap was an issue “lots of people brought up”, and the government is thinking about when and how to change it.

The meeting comes as Welsh Labour prepare for a challenging set of elections in the Senedd next year. Labour have been in power in Wales since devolution began in 1999, but polls currently predict a three-horse race between Plaid Cymru, Reform UK and Labour.

The first minister accepted Reform could win power, saying they are a “genuine threat” to her party that they “need to take seriously”.

She said she understands the desire for change. “They’ve never had the opportunity to vote for a female first minister before, that in itself is a big change”, Baroness Morgan said.

Plaid Cymru leader Rhun ap Iorwerth, who, according to recent polls could be in power in Wales next year, said the first minister left Downing Street with “nothing more than a photo with the prime minister”.
