He might want to tell Nigel Farage that.

Not only have the UK Government refused to give Wales the £4bn we're owed from HS2, reports suggest they will only invest in rail projects in England.
It's disappointing Labour in Wales refuses to fight this injustice.
Only Plaid Cymru stands up for Wales.

Excuse me Ms Coburn, but wasn't Brexit about control of our laws, our money and our borders, our sovereignty etc, etc? Oh, I guess it must have been all about racism, bigotry and xenophobia then after all.

As we’re all sitting in the wreckage of what happened last time govt was fearful of Farage, Labour must wise up.
Thinking you can cajole this hideous man into not having a massive tantrum is naive in the extreme. Let him howl and do right by the rest of us.
