Corbyn should look at what Welsh Labour have failed to do.

Speaking after his address to conference, Jeremy  said: 

“I pay tribute to Carwyn for all he has done. Thank him for his courage in taking over Cardiff Airport, thank him for his work on defending the steel industry and industrial investment and thank him for his support for the education programmes been put forward by the Welsh Labour Government”.
Mr Corbyn sought to reassure Labour voters that despite recent national and Welsh trials, they were still the party they should choose.
Mr Corbyn said:

 “Welsh Labour represents the people of Wales, Welsh Labour is determined to invest in the future of Wales, Welsh Labour is leading the way on transport investment, industrial investment and infrastructure.
"Wales is a more equal place with Labour than it could ever be with anyone else.”
I wonder if he really knows the 20 year record of the dominance of the Welsh Assembly ?

Maybe he should compare it with the SNP government  in Scotland.


Indeed if he is looking for an example of what a Labour government could do if it regains power in Westminster, Welsh Labour is not the one he should follow.

Of course he wants to replace the SNP government  with a Labour  and has Richard Leonard claiming the Corbyn mantle , where he attacks the SNP  sometimes rightly, but all to often on powers that are reserved at Westminster.

Whatever the case if Jeremy wants to run a true socialists government  in Westminster.  He should looks at what Labour in Wales in power for nearly 20 years have failed to do, not their very small achievements.
