For Wales, See Wales

Bombshell poll drops in Welsh politics


Listen Later

This week the pod heads out on the road. Setting up camp inside the Senedd/Welsh Parliament the gang invite any politician to come one and chew the fat. 

The very morning that we arrived a gobsmacking poll was released that put Plaid top, with Reform just behind and Labour on just 18%. First Minister Eluned Morgan had also given a speech where she (sorta) reestablished the clear red water between herself and Keir Starmer. 

This pod is a bit different to usual. Guests were dropping in left and right. 

Labour’s Lee Waters reminded Will of their, err, interesting history. Llyr Gruffydd says Plaid Cymru are simply more fun than Labour and Tory Tom Giffard explains his vision for a M4 without queues. 

Big thanks to the Senedd Commission for letting us in. The public is able to visit the Senedd so get on down there and nosy around!

About FWSW

100 years ago if you had picked up the Encyclopaedia Britannica and looked up “Wales” you would have seen four words - ‘For Wales, see England.’ 

This implied that Wales was no different to England. Not worthy of its own description. Second fiddle. Frankly, it implied that Wales was simply less of a country. 

That is why we have launched our podcast: For Wales, See Wales.

It is a weekly look at Welsh politics looking at the issues that matter to people here.

There are so many people who are passionately Welsh, who care about Wales and want to better understand what is happening here. 

The more informed people are on Welsh issues, the more they are able to hold politicians and decision makers to account for the things that affect their lives. 

Just as importantly, we want to have a good laugh talking and learning about the country we love.
