Cost of living

My first priority is cutting the cost of living for people in Cardiff North. We have…

  • Raised the minimum wage for all ages and apprentices

  • Raised the state pension

  • Protected the triple lock on pensions

  • Extended the freeze on fuel duty

  • Served free schools to every primary school pupil in Wales

  • Introduced free “baby bundles” for expecting parents in Wales

  • Capped bus fares at £1 for young people in Wales

  • Protected free bus passes for over-60s in Wales

  • Supported more than 50,000 young people in Wales with the Young Persons Guarantee of training, work, or help starting a business

  • Expanded eligibility and boosted Educational Maintenance Allowance to £40 per week
