The face of Welsh politics has been utterly transformed. In this emergency weekend edition of Senedd Sources, Ollie Cole and Jo Kiernan dissect a brutal election day that saw Labour’s Eluned Morgan become the first head of a British government to lose her seat in modern history.

With Plaid Cymru (43 seats) and Reform UK (34 seats) dominating the new 96-seat Senedd, we look at the "two-horse race" narrative that squeezed the traditional parties and what a Plaid Cymru minority government means for the future of Wales.

Topics covered:

• The collapse of the Labour vote and Eluned Morgan’s resignation.
• Why Reform UK outperformed expectations (but missed their majority).
• The "Squeeze": How the new voting system backfired on its creators.
• Is Keir Starmer to blame? The view from Westminster vs. Cardiff Bay.
• The Liberal Democrat and Green struggle for relevance.
