The cost-of-living is on the up, a war rages in Europe, and strikes are proliferating across transport services, yet in spite of these challenges Labour and Plaid have decided to prioritise plans for more politicians in Cardiff Bay.
At a time when families across Wales face difficult financial choices, the Labour Government and their nationalist partners have proposed expanding the Senedd at cost of up to £100 million for Welsh taxpayers.
The people of Wales do not want to see money that could be used to alleviate hardship plundered for more politicians. Instead they want to see more job opportunities, an end to the decline in Welsh education standards and action taken to address Labour’s record long NHS waiting times – the worst in the UK.
