General Election 2015: Plaid Cymru leader ' we would work with SNP'

Available for over a year

Plaid Cymru launch their election manifesto today, with a call for Wales to receive the same level of funding as Scotland. The Welsh nationalist party has failed to build the same support as its Scottish counterpart the SNP in recent years and one of its former leaders, Lord Elis-Thomas, says he can't blame Welsh voters for sticking with Labour. Leanne Wood, head of Plaid Cymru, said that she would work with the SNP if it was in "the interests of both our countries". However she ruled out support for a Conservative government, going on to add that the party "would not be part of a formal coalition with a Labour government prepared to renew trident".
