Situation with farmers incredibly tense

A Welsh Labour leadership candidate has admitted the situation with protesting farmers is "incredibly tense".

Both Mr Gething and Mr Miles are competing to replace Mr Drakeford next month, with voting having opened last week.Farmers have been protesting over plans for new farm subsidies to replace EU-designed schemes, which will require trees to be planted on 10% of land. A consultation is ongoing."This is public money, so the government is entitled to put conditions on how that is spent," he told the audience in Cardiff.

Both candidates will be appearing before the Covid Inquiry when it comes to Wales in the next few weeks. He said: "I became education minister in the second half of it so my predecessor dealt with the intense early stages of education in schools, but there are things which we could all do better and differently and, actually, it's really important as part of this process that we're upfront about that to the inquiry."The wide-ranging debate touched on the Welsh government's switch to 20mph on largely urban streets.

The candidates were asked how they would try to resolve the junior doctors strike. Mr Miles said it was "perfectly reasonable for people to want to be fairly paid for the work that they do".
