PLAID Cymru leader Leanne Wood yesterday accused Labour of being “embarrassed” by its own history as the party of trade unions.
Ms Wood made the controversial claim as she set out her party’s pledge to end the “war against working people” ahead of May’s general election.
Speaking during a Westminster visit she slammed the Tories “shamelessly political” plans to introduce strike ballot thresholds.
