Responding to Keir Starmer denying giving “false hope” to Port Talbot steelworkers, Andrew RT Davies MS, Leader of the Welsh Conservatives, said:
“The Labour Government must not let our steel communities down.
“We were told by Labour that a new deal could be done for Welsh steel, and people across Wales now expect to see a deal done to save steel jobs.
“We urge the Government not to backtrack, but to secure a deal that will deliver for our steel communities.”
Davies added:
“The Labour UK Government still hasn’t guaranteed they will offer the full transition fund promised by the last government.
“It’s vital that this support is in place.”
