It’s back of the queue for Wales

I CAN’T wait to read the independent Welsh Labour manifesto.

Welsh Labour pretends to be independent from the UK party, while spending Labour’s unionist-raised money to fund their campaigns.

If people in Wales vote on this Welsh Labour manifesto they would be misled into thinking a London Labour party in government would honour those commitments in this manifesto.

At the end of the day the leader of the Labour party, which includes Welsh Labour, is Jeremy Corbyn. Carwyn Jones is just leader of a region of the Labour party that is fully funded from English members.

Labour MPs from Wales will be loyal to their leader in London, not in Cardiff. Just like the 1980s, and sadly for Wales, these MPs will be embroiled with infighting between left and right, due to the future leadership election. With Mrs May following in Mrs Thatcher’s footsteps, Wales will always be an afterthought.

Now we will see Northern Ireland pushing for unity, if there are hard borders erected, and efforts to try to stop another Scottish independence referendum. So in fact quiet little Wales will be pushing to be at the back of the UK queue.
