TRADE unionists in Wales celebrated 25 years of devolution today and welcomed the gains for workers in the country.
Wales TUC general secretary Shavanah Taj said: “Twenty-five years of devolution has delivered for workers in Wales, from free prescriptions to the Real Living Wage for social care workers.
“Devolution has also mitigated the worst impact of Tory austerity and anti-union laws, repealing the Trade Union Act in the devolved public sector, as well as keeping the Wales Union Learning Fund and Agricultural Wages Board.
The election offers a critical chance to shape the future of pay, care and community provision in Wales, says Unison’s JESS TURNER
JACKIE OWEN and DYLAN LEWIS-ROWLANDS argue that Welsh Labour conference this weekend is the be-all and end-all moment if Labour wants to avoid a rout at next year’s election
