Jessica Morden Jessica Morden - Labour MP for Newport East, Shadow Deputy Leader of the House of Commons and PPS to Keir Starmer

On Friday John and I were joined by the Welsh Government Minister for the economy, Vaughan Gething and Community Union’s Rob Edwards at our Newport East Labour Party meeting. Ahead of the meeting, we sat down to talk about the steel industry in Newport East and across Wales.
The current Tory government in Westminster has no plan, and perhaps no desire, to ensure that steelmaking in Wales, and across the UK is invested in and protected – it would seem that only Labour has a real plan for steel.
Watch the clip below to hear what we had to say.
