Yesterday’s report from the Office of Fair Trading was no surprise to those who have looked into this issue – in particular Stella Creasy. Read Stella’s article for the Guardian commenting on the issue here. I was delighted to have Stella’s support in my campaign for Police & Crime Commissioner last autumn. After meeting with Women’s Groups from across North Wales to explore what more can be done to end violence against women, Stella, Chris Ruane MP and I met with North Wales Credit Union. Credit Unions offer a real alternative to the loan sharks and deserve our support.
