"Labour has also won every time the Senedd has been contested, as it will be again in May. Yet, if the most recent Wales-wide poll holds good, that is set to change. Plaid will instead be the largest party, just ahead of Reform UK, with Labour third. Though still a minority, Plaid would be in government. In Welsh terms, that would be a political earthquake. Perhaps in Britain-wide terms too"

The Guardian view on the nationalist surge: the SNP and Plaid Cymru are making the political weather

Editorial: In both Scotland and Wales, politics is marching to the beat of different drums from the rest of Britain. The UK-wide parties should watch out

The Green Party are working to win some seats in the Senedd. There has been an increase in Welsh members and with PR there is hope.
I am an ex Labour member ,as a socialist the National UK Labour party has moved too far right for me and I have joined the Greens. As of last night's AGM for Gwent Greens I am now #Newport coordinator.
