Biggest election losers are people ofWales

-

THE Labour party produced and promoted the “Vera” letter prior to the recent General Election, suggesting that the Labour Party in Wales was the paragon of Welsh working class values and that only a vote for the Labour Party would defend the people of Wales from the nasty Tories.

Absolute nonsense – and the following facts shows the true values of the Labour Party in Wales.

Plaid Cymru has tried seven times to pass a law banning zero hours contracts in the public sector in Wales. The Labour Government has conspired with the Tories, the Liberal and the Independen­t Lord to vote against the motion. Carwyn Jones is a mirror image of Ramsey McDonald, a Labour leader who conspired with the Tories and Liberals in the 1930s.

The most shameful and the saddest statistic that the Welsh Labour Government (supported by the Liberals and the Independen­t Lord) and all Westminste­r Government­s since the Second World War is that 25% of Welsh children are living in poverty!

With incompeten­t politician­s governing in Westminste­r and Cardiff Bay, sadly this figure is going to increase dramatical­ly.

A plethora of “nodding donkey” Labour MPs were returned to Westminste­r, but the Labour party still lost the election.

The biggest losers were the people of Wales, who only have four Plaid Cymru MPs, because the other 36 London-centric MPs will tow the party line, putting party interest

before the interests of Wales. Illtyd ap Dafydd Nantyffyll­on, Maesteg
