The corrupt practices undertaken by both Labour and Tory MPs and peers continues apace, says Dr Gwyn Williams, Plaid Cymru candidate. MPs are free to top their salaries, raking in Β£65m over the past 15 years. These second jobs allow lobbying firms to gain unfair advantages.

I never thought I would agree with John Major says Harri Roberts, Senedd Candidate, but the former Tory Prime Minister has blamed Brexit for making the country poorer. Also, he’s right to suggest the UK should re-enter the customs union and the single market.
