First Minister responds to Commission into UK’s future

Responding to Gordon Brown’s Commission into the UKs Future, Mark Drakeford, First Minister and leader of Welsh Labour said:

“The union of the United Kingdom is under greater threat now than at any other time in its long history as a result of the actions – and neglect – of successive UK Conservative Governments.

 

“I want to thank Gordon Brown for all the work he has put into this timely, comprehensive report and set of recommendations for the future of the UK. I am very grateful for the engagement we have had during the development of this report.

“Labour is the party of devolution and this report shows that only Labour is thinking urgently about the future of the United Kingdom. This report puts forward important ideas about how power can be devolved and shared throughout the country to create a stronger union and a stronger United Kingdom.

 

“I look forward to seeing these recommendations realised as soon as we have a Labour UK Government.”
