I would like to begin by expressing my solidarity with Rail, Maritime and Transport workers currently on strike across the UK. Rail staff work all hours, seven days a week, to keep the country moving. Far from modernising our railway, the UK Government now want to make compulsory redundancies, with cuts to thousands of rail jobs. The rail workers involved in the dispute include on-train and station staff, cleaners and repair workers, the majority of whom haven't had pay rises for two or three years. These are ordinary workers whose livelihoods are now under threat, despite the fact that rail companies have made in excess of £500 million a year in private profit since the start of the pandemic. Thankfully, in Wales, we have a leader in Mark Drakeford who supports workers and works with unions so that Transport for Wales staff are not on strike this week. The UK Tory Government could learn a lot from the Welsh Labour Government, and the buck stops with them when it comes to disruption.

But it's not just in this respect that I feel the Conservative Party have got lessons to learn. I was shocked to hear calls from the opposition benches last week for an increase in the number of internal flights in Wales. We are in a climate emergency, and such a move will do nothing to support ordinary people to access services they need in their local communities. Twenty-five per cent of the lowest income families do not own a car; they are more likely to live in highly polluted places and not have access to gardens and green spaces—
