Opposition politicians offer strong views over e-cig vote

Opposition politicians have waded into the e-cigarette argument, with Labour and Plaid Cymru members attacking each other.

Plaid voted against the Public Health Bill at the last-minute on Wednesday, after earlier stating they would support it.

It came after public services minister Leighton Andrews called a previous deal with the party a "cheap date".

Labour's deputy health minister Vaughan Gething told BBC Radio Wales' Good Morning Wales programme that Plaid's actions call into question the "maturity" of the assembly.

On the same programme, Plaid's shadow economy minister Rhun ap Iorwerth said his party made the decision over a lack of respect shown.
