Prime Minister defends funding for Leveling Up and denies it favors the South East

Goof-prone Rishi Sunak has been accused of 'posting on the fly' after he slapped an upgrade poster on a historic building.

The Prime Minister posed for photos putting the slogan on Accrington Town Hall.

But locals complained after leaving it in place for two days when he failed to remove it.

The gaffe happened on the same day as his disastrous tour of the country on January 19.

During a visit to Blackpool that morning, he was filmed not wearing a seatbelt in the back of a car and ended up with a police fine.

Kimberley Whitehead, a union adviser who complained about the poster, accused the PM of 'posting on the fly'.

"It's a beautiful building. It's an iconic building right in the center, and then we had this horrible political slogan that effectively defaced the facade of the building," she said.

Referring to Mr. Sunak's series of rule violations, including not wearing a seatbelt, she added: "People just throw these things away, but in reality, they're really serious. The rules are the rules."
