Welsh Conservative Party leader Andrew RT Davies wants his country to emulate Cardiff City FC, by moving from “red to blue” this May.

The Leader’s call comes ahead of a campaign launch pad event at the Cardiff City Stadium on Thursday morning, in which he will outline the urgent need to end 17-years of uninterrupted, stagnant Labour Party rule from Cardiff Bay.

The event follows the Party’s Conference in Llangollen, in which the Welsh Conservatives outlined five of their key pledges to secure the real change our nation needs.

A Welsh Conservative Government will:

  • PROTECT THE NHS; by guaranteeing more investment in our health service each and every year
  • CREATE MORE JOBS; by backing small businesses and improving infrastructure
  • DELIVER EXCELLENCE IN EDUCATION; transforming teacher training and directing more funds to the classroom
  • PROVIDE SECURITY AND DIGNITY FOR OLDER PEOPLE; by setting a cap on costs and protecting £100,000 of assets for those in residential care
  • TREBLE FREE CHILDCARE; ensuring affordable and accessible support for families

Welsh Conservatives will champion these key messages at Thursday’s event, which follows the final plenary business of the Assembly term, as the Fourth Assembly nears its end.

Welsh Conservatives leader Andrew RT Davies AM said, “After 17 years of Labour failure, Wales needs real change. Welsh Conservatives have a clear plan to secure that real change; and we’re ready to turn Wales from red to blue.

“From protecting the NHS budget, to creating more jobs by backing small businesses and improving infrastructure, and delivering excellence in education, we stand ready to take Wales on a new path.

“Our pledges to put a weekly cap on costs and protect £100,000 of assets for those in residential care, and our commitment to treble free childcare, further demonstrate how Welsh Conservatives are ready to secure real change, and deliver opportunities, for all people in Wales.

“Welsh voters have a clear choice between the same old ideas that simply aren’t working with Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour or changing to a better future with the Welsh Conservatives.

“With Jeremy Corbyn’s Labour hanging on to power by just one seat, it is time to secure real change for Wales.”
