May I also wish you well for the future?

Isn’t it true to say that the poorest families in Wales have been let down by your Government and by your leadership? There are many examples, and the latest are the childcare proposals—a deficient Bill that discriminates against families and  parents who are already struggling, because those families not in work will not qualify for free childcare under your proposals. That is unfair and unjust, and Plaid Cymru will be voting against that Bill tomorrow.

Is it a lack of support for the poorest families in our society that is one of the issues that you are most disappointed about in looking back at your tenure as First Minister?
