Part of 1. 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:47 pm on 1 November 2016.
But what this does show, does it not, is that Brexit offers an opportunity, as well as a challenge, and that if we approach the negotiations in the spirit of optimism and positivity, then we are likely to achieve a great deal more? The trouble with the First Minister is that he’s a moaning Minnie. He only sees the problems. He doesn’t see the opportunities. As regards steel and the other industrial sectors, there’s absolutely no reason whatsoever to think that our industries can’t be more competitive than those across the channel, particularly because not being part of the eurozone gives us a more competitive currency.
