Responding to the speech from Andy Burnham MP, in which he sets out his big idea to devolve power to regional mayors in England, Darren Millar MS, Leader of the Welsh Conservatives, said:
“Andy Burnham is making the same mistakes as Keir Starmer, set to become Prime Minister of one of the world’s largest economies without a plan to govern.
“Without a plan, he can’t take the tough decisions to cut taxes, reduce welfare, grow our economy, deliver energy security and invest in defence.
"Instead of growing our economy, Andy Burnham's main commitment seems to be moving powers around between politicians.
“It’s increasingly clear that Kemi Badenoch is the only party leader with a plan to get Britain working.”
