威爾士政府已承諾引入一項法律，將使政客撒謊成為非法行為。

工黨領導的政府法律顧問Mick Antoniw表示，如果威爾士議會成員和候選人被發現故意欺
騙，他們將被取消資格。

在辯論中，工黨成員Alun Davies指責威爾士保守黨領袖Andrew RT Davies在推特上撒謊
，稱工黨想給非法移民每月支付1600英鎊。他說：“這將我們的政治帶入低谷，阻止我們
進行真正的政治辯論。”

該法律將在2026年威爾士議會選舉前引入。

Antoniw先生表示：“威爾士政府將在2026年前通過立法，通過獨立的司法程序，使被判
故意欺騙的成員和候選人失去資格。”

前Plaid Cymru領袖Adam Price稱這一宣布是“全球開創性的”。他說：“我們的政府承
諾將成為全球首個引入普遍禁止政客欺騙的民主國家。我們正處於一場全球運動的開端。
我們將取締政治謊言。”

工黨前部長Lee Waters指責Boris Johnson在謊言中成為首相並再次離職。他說：“
Boris Johnson撒謊進入唐寧街，又撒謊離開。這個國家的政治變得更加黑暗。公眾需要
知道他們可以信任所說的話。撒謊不能成為常態。”

威爾士政府週二與Plaid Cymru和Waters先生達成協議，承諾立法。該法案以26票贊成、
13票反對和13票棄權通過。

Davies先生被聯繫以作評論。

Welsh Government to ban politicians from lying

Tory leader in Wales first to be accused of deception during debate on new
legislation




The Welsh Government has committed to introduce a law which will make it
illegal for politicians to lie.

Mick Antoniw, the Labour-led Government’s counsel general, said it would
disqualify Members of the Senedd and candidates from the house if they were
found guilty of deliberate deception.

During the debate, Alun Davies, a Labour member, accused Andrew RT Davies,
the leader of the Welsh Tories, of tweeting a lie on Tuesday after he claimed
Sir Keir’s party wanted to pay illegal immigrants ￡1,600 a month.

He said: “This takes our politics into the gutter and stops us engaging with
each other in real political debate.”

The law would be introduced ahead of the Senedd elections in 2026.




Mr Antoniw said: “The Welsh Government will bring forward legislation before
2026 for the disqualification of members and candidates found guilty of
deliberate deception, through an independent judicial process.”

He said that the details of how the law would work needed to be ironed out
and called for cross-party cooperation.

Adam Price, the former Plaid Cymru leader who has led calls for such a law to
be introduced, said the announcement was “globally pioneering”.

He said: “What has been announced is truly historic, globally pioneering. We
have a commitment from our Government that our democracy will be the first in
the world to introduce a general prohibition on deception by politicians.

“We are at the beginning of a global movement. We are going to outlaw
political lying.”
‘Existential threat’

Mr Price said truth was essential to democracy, but noted there had been a
collapse in trust in politicians, adding: “That is an existential threat. A
democracy starts to break down if the electors can’t trust what the elected
say.

“We have to innovate, we have to try different things. It’s a small
minority of politicians, populist demagogues, that deliberately distort the
truth for their own political gain, but they poison the well for everyone. It
is never acceptable for politicians to deliberately deceive.”

Lee Waters, the Labour former minister, accused Boris Johnson of becoming
prime minister on the back of a campaign of lies.

He said: “Boris Johnson lied his way to Downing Street and lied his way out
again. Politics in this country has become darker. The public needs to know
they can trust what is being said. Lying cannot become the norm.”

On Tuesday, the Welsh Government committed to the legislation as part of a
deal with Plaid Cymru and Mr Waters.

It passed the legislation with 26 votes for, 13 against and with 13
abstentions.

Mr Davies was contacted for comment.
