Welsh First Minister Eluned Morgan is making it crystal clear she’s not about to sit back quietly while Labour’s proposed benefit cuts threaten some of the most vulnerable people in Wales. In a speech set for Tuesday, she’s expected to draw a firm line between Welsh Labour values and the direction the UK Government seems to be taking, particularly around plans to slash disability benefits.
The cuts have already sparked backlash across the UK, but in Wales, they’re expected to hit particularly hard. Recent figures from Policy in Practice revealed that four of the ten areas set to be worst affected by these benefit cuts are in Wales. So it’s no surprise Eluned is stepping up to say enough’s enough, reported the Mirror.
