First Minister Vaughan Gething kicks off Welsh Labour campaign in speech to Trade Union Congress

Today [Thu 23 May], Vaughan Gething kicked off Welsh Labour’s General Election campaign in a speech to the Trade Union Congress in Llandudno.

The Leader of Welsh Labour said:

“Today is a day where we can finally feel the end to fourteen years of this UK Tory Government. An end to fourteen years of decline, fourteen years of neglect.

“Cameron, May, Johnson, Truss, Sunak. It is finally time to turn the page on those vandals. […] We know there is another future we can chart.

“We know the difference that a Labour government makes, and we know that two Labour governments at either end of the M4 can transform Wales and transform Britain.”

Shadow Welsh Secretary, Jo Stevens, said:

“Today we begin our campaign to turn the page on 14 years of Conservative chaos and failure.
“Labour has a long term, serious plan to change our country. No more Tory gimmicks. No more sticking plasters. We’ve set out the first steps that two Labour governments will deliver.
“Together, we can stop the chaos, turn the page and rebuild our country. The choice is in your hands. Choose change.”
