Rhun ap Iorwerth said Wales would be 'daft' not to look at the Scottish Child Payment as an example to followPLAID Cymru’s leader has said he would like to see an equivalent of the Scottish Child Payment implemented in Wales where a third of children live in poverty.
He said: “We’re a progressive party and nothing is more important in terms what we’re trying to achieve in politics than making sure we look after the most vulnerable in our society.“A third of children in Wales live in poverty and I won’t rest until we have addressed that and there are lessons from Scotland about the way that has been addressed.
“When you look at independent assessments of how its making a real difference to people’s lives, we’d be daft in Wales not to look at how a policy working in Scotland could work for us too. “I campaigned in Scotland in the referendum in 2014 and that was the culmination of a few very intense years of knowing that referendum was on the horizon,” he said.
Asked if this was now a contest between Wales and Scotland as to who can get independence first, Ap Iorwerth said the SNP and Plaid have always bounced off each other’s success and can continue to push each other in their respective missions for independence.
