Proceeding contribution from Lord Hain (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 March 2007. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Welsh Affairs.


Welsh Affairs

I am always reluctant to agree with the hon. Gentleman, because it makes me wonder whether the position that I am taking is correct, but I have to say that he is absolutely right. What also interests me is the fact that the parliamentary leader of Plaid Cymru, the hon. Member for Meirionnydd Nant Conwy (Mr. Llwyd), signed an early-day motion in November opposing the entire defence review programme, and with it the jobs in Wales. I assume that the Plaid Cymru candidate in the Vale of Glamorgan is going to campaign on a programme of ““send the jobs back, repatriate the defence training rationalisation investment, and have a fresh decision in London””.
