The news that 300 high skilled manufacturing jobs are being created in Newport East is very welcome. This, and the impending South Wales Metro investment, will be a great boost to local residents and businesses. 

It shows just what a difference the positive economic strategy being led by the Welsh Labour Government and Labour Newport City Council can make. With global companies like Tata Steel and Liberty Steel already located in this area, this sends a positive message that Newport is open to the world for investment.
