PLAID Cymru’s acting leader Llyr Gruffydd has written to Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer asking him to support greater powers for Wales ahead of Saturday’s independence march in Swansea.

Mr Gruffydd’s letter said the Labour Party had “historically failed” to keep pace with the growing desire for more powers for Wales.

Plaid’s acting leader called on Sir Keir to back greater powers over the economy, broadcasting, energy, welfare, justice, and transport.
