LEANNE Wood launched Plaid Cymru’s general election slogan “Working for Wales” at the party’s annual conference this morning.
The party’s leader opened the event at Llangollen Pavilion along with 20 of Plaid’s Westminster candidates.
Among them were firefighter Beci Newton, who is standing in an election for the first time after joining Plaid two years ago.
In her speech today, Ms Newton will tell Plaid members: “I never thought that I would stand as a candidate.
“I couldn’t be more different from the career politicians — the political elite — which currently run our politics in Westminster.”
“But when the opportunity came — I decided that I had had enough of standing on the sidelines complaining. I decided that I wanted to go out there and make a difference for my community.”
