Mark Drakeford responds to news of death of former Welsh Labour MP Llew Smith

RESPONDING to the news of the death of former Blaenau Gwent MP Llew Smith, Welsh Labour Leader and First Minister Mark Drakeford said:

“I’m saddened to hear of Llew’s passing.

“As a Member of the European Parliament and the Member of Parliament for Blaenau Gwent, Llew was a fierce advocate for the communities he represented. He was firm in his beliefs, and never shied from speaking out on the important issues of the day.

“Llew was a radical socialist in the Blaenau Gwent tradition.

“My thoughts are with Llew’s family and friends at this difficult time.”
