Alan Johnson: Parts of Wales 'transformed' by EU aid

Parts of Wales have been transformed by EU funding, the leader of Labour's campaign to remain in the EU has said.

But Alan Johnson told BBC Wales it was "unfair" to think European economic aid money would solve all the problems of the poorest parts of the country.

The EU is providing £1.8bn to Wales between 2014 and 2020, to spend on schemes to improve economic growth.

But some campaigners to leave said the money saved by not paying EU membership fees could be spent on these poorer areas, as well as hospitals and schools.
