AMS clashed over the power-sharing agreement between the Conservative Party and Northern Ireland's Democratic Unionist Party in the Senedd on Tuesday.

An emergency debate was held in the Senedd yesterday in reaction to Monday's announcement that Theresa May's Conservatives had reached a deal with the DUP following the result of the General Election.

The agreement has proven controversial among many in Wales, with claims £1 billion in investment promised for Northern Ireland will not be matched elsewhere in the UK.

Opening the debate first minister Carwyn Jones called the deal "wrong and corrosive".

"Just last week we were told the prime minister's priority was to create a united country," he said.

"This agreement undermines the very principles of fairness and solidarity."

He added he would be launching a formal dispute against the deal with the Joint Ministerial Council.

But leader of the Welsh Conservatives Andrew RT Davies said creating a stable government was crucial for the everyday running of the UK.

To heckling from the Labour and Plaid Cymru benches, he said: "The real issue here is the UK needs a government, a majority government, to get on with its business."

Plaid leader Leanne Wood said people in Wales "should be angry" over the deal.

"Wales has always been third in the queue behind Northern Ireland and Scotland for powers and funding," she said.

"This country has kicked up the least fuss.

"We’ve been the quietest and most well-behaved of the UK countries and that has led to us being left behind."

But leader of the Senedd's Ukip group and former Conservative MP Neil Hamilton accused Labour and Plaid of "humbug, hypocrisy and sour grapes".

"The DUP did what they have been elected to do - get the best deal for Northern Ireland," he said.

Saying he he found the agreement "tricky", Conservative South Wales Central AM David Melding said: "I hope we will see a chance now for all parties to work together."

He added: "We do need to stand up for Wales. That is why the National Assembly is here."

Closing the debate, the first minister said: "What troubles me more than anything is that this Conservative government has been tasked with getting the best deal for the UK as it leaves the European Union, and it's been shaken down by 10 DUP MPs.

"What hope is there for the UK?"
