Ken Skates gives an example of a pandemic election pointing out many candidates met for the first time today, he highlights Lib Dem Leena Farhat in his speech with words of encouragement.
Skates talks about working in unity, and looks towards local council elections with electioneering starting already when he talks about working together as a ‘cohesive’ unit.
Moving to a broader message he says the pandemic has highlighted changes, and “what we believe mattered, does not matter so much” and it is about “how we treat others” and speaks of a “greater purpose” including the environment and a “cohesive and respectful society”.
