A Quote by Claire Fox
Welsh voices and Welsh communities were heard in 2016 in their tens of thousands, in their droves. They voted to leave the European Union and since then they have had that slapped in their face actually often by Labour MPs who basically said we know better than you.

There were many reasons why people voted to leave the European Union in 2016.
