成人快手 to Ebbw Vale

Journalist Oruj Defoite returns to her hometown of Ebbw Vale to investigate why its citizens voted so heavily in favour of leaving the EU.

Journalist Oruj Defoite was brought up in Ebbw Vale. On this journey home, she investigates why people there voted so heavily in favour of leaving the EU. Blaenau Gwent has benefitted from European investment in many ways, so what led voters to turn their backs on the EU? And what does the future hold for this once-booming steel town? Can a big incoming project such as the proposed circuit of Wales racetrack alleviate poverty which dogs the area? Or should Ebbw Vale look to its own entrepreneurs to build it up again from the grassroots?
