Plaid Cymru Pontypridd On Your Side

Plaid Cymru offers a truly radical and ambitious programme for government, coupled with the promise of putting Wales' future in Wales' hands. Our manifesto will finally tackle the problems of the prior pandemic in Wales; low wages, child poverty, and lack of opportunity. Nothing about Wales today is inevitable, there are no problems that we cannot solve for ourselves.  

A Plaid government, if elected on May 6th, would commit £500m to improving Wales flood defences and support the communities “left behind by Labour” in recent years.  In a ground-breaking commitment, Plaid Cymru MS for the Rhondda Leanne Wood said that major storms over the last few years had devastated homes in her community, nearby Pontypridd, and in many other areas of Wales from Llanrwst to Caerphilly.    Councillor Heledd Fychan, Plaid Cymru candidate for Pontypridd, criticised Labour for opposing an independent inquiry into severe flooding in the Valleys, saying that a Plaid Cymru government would put right Labour’s “piecemeal approach” to flood prevention with meaningful investment.
