Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood's UKIP attack condemned

Plaid Cymru leader Leanne Wood has been criticised for her fierce attack on UKIP by a former party leader.

Dafydd Elis-Thomas, the former assembly presiding officer, condemned Ms Wood's description of a vote for UKIP as a vote against Wales in her speech to the Plaid Cymru spring conference.

He said: "It is facile and assumes a kind of superiority that we decide who is Welsh and who is not Welsh."

Meanwhile, MEP Jill Evans appealed for backing in May's European elections.
