Rhun ap Iorwerth said he was 'deeply concerned' over funding
Concerns are raised over anticipated cuts to Welsh infrastructure funding following UK defence spending plans, with warnings that schools and hospitals may lose investment. Rhun ap Iorwerth criticises the lack of advance notice, while a Labour source disputes the scale of the impact and questions Plaid Cymru’s stance on national security. Broader frustration is expressed over long‑standing UK government decisions seen as undermining Welsh devolution and denying Wales financial adjustments granted to Scotland.
