Speaking at the Swalec Stadium today following the announcement that Andrew RT Davies has been elected as Leader of the Welsh Conservatives Group in the National Assembly, William Graham AM said:
‘Andrew RT Davies has the vision and drive to lead the Welsh Conservatives to build upon the gains that the Party made in May’s Assembly elections. Having been closely involved in his leadership campaign I have seen at first hand Andrew’s energy and ambition to work towards Wales having a better, more prosperous future.’
The Shadow Minister for Local Government added:
‘Andrew’s experience in Business will be particularly significant as the Welsh Conservatives look to champion the cause of SME’s and the need for job creation while challenging Welsh Labour’s appalling neglect of the private sector and complacent attitude on the economy. Similarly, Andrew’s background in farming and appreciation of the issues facing rural communities will reassure the many people in Wales concerned at Labour’s decision to downgrade the Rural Affairs to a non-Cabinet position.’
