"As a young mother of three, Sophie is well aware of the help which families are receiving under the Labour Governments in London and Cardiff Bay. She is well placed to continue to argue for those policies and to campaign to make Cardiff a family-friendly city.
"I am delighted to lend her my support for the Assembly elections. In this, the 100th year of the Parliamentary Labour Party, it is good to see Labour candidates still standing up for the rights of ordinary people who deserve better."
Sophie Howe said: "I was very pleased to welcome Alan to Cardiff North and to hear him speak to our members.
"If elected in May it will be my priority to stand up for families who need help from government. It is Labour who will deliver for those hard-working families, as has been shown over the last eight years - policies like the national minimum wage, tax credits, paternity and maternity leave and increases in child benefit have helped the most vulnerable people.
"All of those policies were opposed by the Conservative Party - proving that there is a difference between the parties, and that every vote in Cardiff North does matter." |
