Mr Cuthbert said: “Voting is extremely important, it is a right and a privilege which many people fought for over decades. I would encourage everyone to come out and make their choice about the future they want to see for Wales, either by post or at the polls, on May the 5
“Obviously as a candidate I would be pleased if you voted for me, but what is more important is that your voice is heard within your democracy.”
