Updated: Fri 9th Apr Wrexham Plaid Cymru candidate slammed for ad board with similarities to infamous racist Smethwick election slogan A Plaid Cymru candidate has been slammed by opponents over a campaign billboard targeting the Conservatives. Carrie Harper, who is standing for the party in Wrexham, shared a video on Twitter last night of a digital advert displayed opposite the town’s main railway station which read: “Don’t want a Tory for a neighbour? Vote Plaid, not Labour.” The post was later deleted after it was widely condemned by other parties due to its similarity to a notorious racist slogan used in Smethwick in the West Midlands during the 1964 General Election.
