He is accused of ignoring Welsh Labour ministers' insistence that travellers use higher-cost tests.

In Wales one PCR test costs £88 and it's £170 for two, but in England people can shop around for private providers and pay less than £50 per test.Welsh ministers are urging people not to travel abroad for holidays this summer and he said: "I don't intend to divert the activities of my officials into making it easier for people to do something that the Welsh government so clearly thinks is unadvisable.

The Welsh Conservatives have renewed the call for a change in approach, urging Wales' Health Minister Eluned Morgan, to "take action to drive down the price of Covid tests so Welsh families do not pay over the odds to travel abroad".

"But we shouldn't expect anything less from Labour who are making it harder for working families in Wales to travel abroad, ensuring it is only an activity available to the wealthiest in our society." "Once again, Starmer is happy to criticise his opponents in Westminster while turning a blind eye to what his own party are doing in Cardiff Bay."
