I recently took part in a debate in the Welsh Assembly to oppose the ridiculous proposal by Betsi Cadwalladr to water down the standards of the nurses who are employed there. Betsi Cadwalladr has been directly run by the Welsh Labour Government for years, giving us a brilliant illustration of the cost of the Labour Party to our NHS in Wales.

Betsi Cadwalladr has been in special measures as a health board since 2015 and under the direct control of the Welsh Government.
During that time improvements have been limited and have run at a snails pace, while the Cabinet Secretary seems intent on spreading the blame around – ignoring the fact that the Welsh Government have been responsible for health as a devolved matter since 1999.
While the Government’s warm words regarding gender equality sound good and I share their vision that Wales should be a country in which influence, power and resources are shared equally, the single best thing we could do to achieve that is provide girls with a world class education, something this Government has utterly failed to deliver on.
