Tories ‘have neglected Wales – and will continue to do so’

THE Labour Party has accused the Tories of never caring about Wales as it launched a new poster warning that more “cruel cuts” will be on the way if Theresa May is elected on June 8.

The poster — “Don’t let the Tories trample over Wales” — was unveiled in Cardiff by Welsh Labour leader and First Minister Carwyn Jones, shadow Welsh secretary Christina Rees and campaign chairman Wayne David yesterday.

Mr Jones said the election is “crucial for the future of Wales,” adding that “the stakes for local communities could not be higher.”
