Madam,

Nothing demonstrates unequivocally how useless it is for the people of Wales to elect members of the English Parties to represent them at Westminster, than seeing Teresa May desperately clinging on to power by bribing the DUP with over £1 billion.

She depends also on the support of eight Welsh Conservative MPs. Why don’t they demand that the same amount is given to Wales which is already underfunded under the Barnett Formula?

In the past the Labour Party has been in similar situations. Invariably their Welsh MPs have been puppets for the Labour Party’s Whips. Carwyn’s ‘Welsh Labour Party’ is merely a sentimental dream.

Only Plaid Cymru MPs have always put first the interests of Wales, their sole concern, and achieved notable victories like the Silicosis benefits for Welsh quarrymen.

Wake up, Wales.

Yours etc, Maldwyn Lewis, Tanyfoel, Borth-y-Gest, Porthmadog.
