After 25 years of devolution and Labour, many people in Wales feel that power is more remote.

Andrew RT Davies writes for the Sunday Times. 👇

Labour and Plaid are spending £120million on 36 more politicians.

This cash should go to our Welsh NHS.

Devolution is now 25 years old.

Throughout that time, Labour has been in power in Wales.

I’ve written for the Sunday Times explaining why the people of Wales deserve so much better ✍️👇

Criticism of Vaughan Gething’s record and his decisions is perfectly fair.

It’s a very low blow for the Labour Party to claim it’s motivated by race.

Plaid and Labour are joined at the hip.

Together, they’ve imposed 20mph speed limits and 36 more politicians on Wales.

It doesn’t matter what stunts the nationalists pull to save face, it still rings true.

Stopping pollution into our rivers must be a top priority.

Yesterday, I joined Welsh Water on a visit to Cog Moors sewage treatment works.

A recent £50m investment in the site will generate clean energy from sewage through an Advanced Anaerobic Digestion facility.

The people of Wales deserve better than this corrosive and constant distraction. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

But don't be fooled, Plaid backed Labour every step of the way as they cut our Welsh NHS, introduced #20mph , the SFS and their £120m plan for more politicians. 🔴🤝🟢

This means nothing. For 3 years, Plaid has been in coalition with Labour.

They’ve worked hand in glove to impose policies on Wales like 20mph speed limits, 36 more politicians and ideologically motivated Sustainable Farming Schemes.

This attempt to save face will not work.

There’s no need for six-pledges from Starmer.

Labour Wales is his “blueprint” for the UK.

Here’s six things they’ve done:

1️⃣ Lowest employment in UK.
2️⃣ Longest NHS waiting times.
3️⃣ £1,600 payment scheme for migrants.
4️⃣ Zero support for TATA Steel.
5️⃣ PCSO budget cut.

These are the people who’re spending £120million on 36 more politicians, so it’s not surprise.

Vaughan Gething’s decisions in the Labour leadership contest are coming back to bite him.

He’s sacked Hannah Blythyn for leaking messages. Yet she’s strenuously denied it.

Only one of them can be right.

Keir Starmer calls Labour Wales his “blueprint” for the UK.

This includes making Wales a so called “Nation of Sanctuary”.

In the Express, I’ve explained why this shows Starmer can’t be trusted to control immigration ✍️ express.co.uk/comment/expres…

Keir Starmer can't be trusted on immigration or asylum - Labour is the party of open borders! 🥀

Just look at his “blueprint” in Wales, from Labour's 'Nation of Sanctuary' to their £1,600 payment scheme. 💰

When Welsh Conservatives 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 held our conference in Cardiff in 2011, we took part in a social action project at St Peter’s Community Hall & Gardens.

Community spirit and hard work transformed the garden into something very special.

This is what the real one nation philosophy is about.

🥀 While Plaid Cymru propped up Labour's disastrous Sustainable Farming Scheme, the Welsh Conservatives fought for farmers across Wales.

🚜 We will continue to ensure any changes to the SFS works for the rural industry.

📺 Watch Rishi Sunak SLAM Labour and Plaid during #PMQs .

The right decision.

Meanwhile, in Labour Wales, they teach sex education to 3 year-olds.

This is what Starmer calls his “blueprint” for the UK.

Kicking the can down the road.

Labour and Plaid’s so called “Sustainable Farming Scheme” will decimate Welsh agriculture.

A “pause” isn’t enough. It must be scrapped.

Our Conservative Government has rightly taken action to stop abuse of graduate visas.

It'll cut migration by 140,000.

Yet Labour's Welsh First Minister suggests Keir Starmer will scrap this policy.

Labour is the party of open borders.

I’m proud to be a Welsh Farmer.

This World Farming Day, I stand with my fellow Welsh farmers fighting Labour’s ideologically motivated policies.

Our food security matters to everyone, both in the countryside and our towns and cities.

Vaughan Gething is running scared of an independent investigation into his donations.
