Speaking on Sunday Morning With Trevor Phillips, Rhun ap Iorwerth said: “I don’t think we have seen anything in the actions of Keir Starmer that makes anyone suggest that he has any interest in pushing Wales forward, in supporting Wales’ specific and particular needs”

He added: “Port Talbot would be perhaps the most glaring example where we lost a virgin steel-making capacity at the Port Talbot steelworks, real anger about that, a process started by the Conservatives, of course, finished off by Labour.
