WHAT REYNOLDS SAID
In a tongue-in-cheek video to announce that tour and a partnership with financial services company Ally that is making the trip possible, Reynolds has poked fun at the manner in which cash has been splashed in North Wales. He said, while pointing a finger at fellow co-chairman McElhenney: “Would you say that your reckless spending has led us to the point of needing an ally like Ally?
