Gerald Jones

Labour — Merthyr Tydfil and Aberdare

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 September 2026

Debate

Strengthening the Union

Contribution

The Plaid Cymru Welsh Government marked their first 100 days in office last week with little fanfare—their achievements to date seem to be setting up Committees and commissioning reports, rather than focusing on the needs of the people of Wales. Does the Secretary of State agree that spending time and money on a commission into independence and undermining the Union of the United Kingdom is not the best way to deliver on the priorities for the people of Wales?
