IT has been confirmed that the Prime Minister is visiting Gloucestershire today. 

Mr Sunak is due to visit a school in the Stroud area this afternoon. 

It comes as Mr Sunak apologised this morning after skipping an international D-Day ceremony for a TV interview.

The Prime Minister said “it was a mistake” not to stay in France for the international event after he had attended the earlier British ceremony in Normandy.

Meanwhile, this week it was revealed in a YouGov poll that the Stroud constituency is expected to turn Labour in the General Election.

Pollsters believe voters are likely to vote in Labour candidate Dr Simon Opher and remove Conservative candidate and former Conservative MP Siobhan Baillie. 

Earlier this year, the PM previously visited specialist STEM site SGS Berkeley Green UTC in March.
