All four Welsh regions endorse damning letter demanding WRU chief Steve Phillips and board resign

A letter sent to WRU chairman Ieuan Evans demanding the immediate removal of chief executive Steve Phillips and the entire board has been endorsed by all four Welsh regions.

Cardiff Rugby non-executive director Hayley Parsons OBE has written the damning letter, which has been circulated to all four regions and endorsed by them. Parsons has called for "immediate and decisive action" and "to make a positive change for the future".

It comes after a BBC programme had interviewed a number of former WRU employees who made some harrowing allegations. You can read full details of that here. Allegations of a "toxic culture" within the organisation were raised after it was accused of bullying and sexism in what has been a chaotic and highly damaging week for the WRU.
