Labour would deliver 'fair play and fair rules', Smith says Labour promises a fairer, better society, Owen Smith says
(about 4 hours later)
A Labour government led by Ed Miliband "will deliver the fair play and fair rules" that people expect in Wales, the shadow Welsh Secretary is expected to tell party delegates in Swansea later. Labour will tackle "immoral" Conservative policies if it wins the election, the shadow Welsh Secretary has told party delegates in Swansea.
Owen Smith will praise Mr Miliband for putting Labour "unequivocally on the side of working people". Owen Smith said it would scrap the so-called bedroom tax and tighten tax laws "in line with people's values".
Welsh Labour's record on jobs will be hailed as better than the coalition's. Labour leader Ed Miliband had given the party its "mojo" back and was on the side of working people, he added.
Mr Smith will call for a UK government "that admires and learns from Wales", rather than "sneers" at it. Mr Smith also claimed Labour was "the party of devolution" and rejected others' claims to speak for Wales.
Mr Miliband promised more powers for Wales and a crackdown on tax avoidance in his speech to the Welsh Labour conference on Saturday. He denounced the Conservatives as "the real enemy of the people", Plaid Cymru as "out of touch", UKIP as a "rag-bag" and that he "can't be bothered" to say anything about the Liberal Democrats.
Mr Smith also hailed the Welsh Labour government's record on jobs as being better than that of the Tory-led coalition at Westminster.
