WELSH Labour Grassroots immediately welcomed Finance Secretary Mark Drakeford’s announcement last week that he will stand for election as Welsh Labour leader in succession to Carwyn Jones.
The group, which predates the founding of Momentum in England but complements its political and organisational approach in Wales, called it “excellent news for the left and for Wales.”
It described Drakeford as “a truly outstanding figure whose contribution to progressive politics is already incalculable. He deserves the support of every socialist and trade unionist and everyone who wants the best for our country.”
