brutally grilled a Labour MP over her party's record in Wales during tonight's BBC Question Time. The moment came as the show debated whether Wales is turning away from Labour.

The host asked Labour MP Alex Davies-Jones: "When you talk about delivery, Labour has been in power here since time and memorial pretty much so you could have delivered." Ms Bruce's comments prompted applause from members of the audience of the programme live from Llandudno in north Wales.

Referring to Labour's plummeting polling ratings, Ms Bruce went on: "According to the support you're getting it looks like people don't trust you any more."

Ms Davies-Jones replied: "Having to do that with a backdrop of really chronic underfunding of our services, whether that is our railway investment, our NHS, our public services."

Ms Bruce pressed: "So it's all Westminster's fault?"

The Pontypridd MP said: "No it's not all Westminster's fault but we do have to recognise that is where the majority of our funding has come from and what we have delivered in Wales in spite of that funding - building new schools in Wales, delivering free school meals in Wales, free prescriptions.

"It's ensuring that our public services are protected, ensuring we've got that adequate schools investment."

Ms Bruce then asked: "Talking about schools, you can't be proud of the record of schools here in Wales.

"They're ranking so low on the Pisa rankings, which is the international ranking of schools. Wales is doing very poorly."

Ms Davies-Jones replied: "I'm proud we're investing in our education in Wales, building those new schools."

The BBC presenter said: "Are you proud of the educational record, where it is in the rankings?"

Ms Davies-Jones said: "What we're doing is actually seeing that in practice, making sure we've that investment coming forward so every child has the opportunity."
