Reacting to the announcement that pubs in England have opened ahead of those in Wales, the Shadow Minister for Economy, Russell George MS, said:
“Once again, Wales is trailing behind other areas of the UK because of Labour’s insistence on playing politics, rather than following the science.
“It makes little sense, when pubs in other parts of the UK have re-opened, for Labour to insist on them remaining firmly shut here in Wales.
“Welsh Conservatives have previously published a cautious, yet detailed, roadmap outlining how we would have reopened pubs as well as other sectors in the economy, including gyms.
“Labour need to stop playing politics and heed our plan so we can build a better Wales.”
