WELSH First Minister Mark Drakeford is setting up a task force to help thousands of Ford workers find new employment after the closure of the car giant’s plant in Bridgend.

The axing of the 40-year-old plant means that at least 1,700 jobs are likely to be lost, along with thousands more in the supply chain.
