For Wales, See Wales

In this week’s episode, the team delve a little deeper into who the new leader of Reform in Wales, Dan Thomas, actually is and where he lives (definitely in Wales, as confirmed since we recorded this).

The trio also question whether newly defected Reform MS James Evans can really change his mind on Nigel Farage quite so quickly. 

Will also deep dives on why the current economic system will not allow Wales to thrive without support.

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.

Following on from the Eluned Morgan interview the For Wales, See Wales gang discuss what the First Minister said. Is there really a digital revolution coming or did it in fact arrive two decades ago?

After dissecting their trip to the Senedd Will, Mel and Robin settle into talk about the plans of Reform and the Welsh Tories to scrap the 20mph limit. Turns out, there isn’t really a plan, just an angry vibe.

This week Robin, Mel and Will welcome the First Minister of Wales Eluned Morgan. 

Coming from the fifth floor of Ty Hywel at the Senedd the trio speak to Welsh Labour’s leader over many Haribos. 

They discuss everything from her first experiences in politics to how she is trying to get Keir Starmer to give Wales what it so desperately needs. Mel reveals the first time she spoke to the FM while an exasperated Will tries to get to the bottom of what will actually be different if people vote Labour again.

In this week’s episode, the For Wales See Wales team discuss what Andy Burnham attempting to nab a Westminster seat could mean for Labour’s image across the UK. Will, Mel and Robin discuss how helpful Keir Starmer’s presence in Wales would actually be to Eluned Morgan in the run up to the Senedd Elections.

Will divulges details of his interview with Rhun Ap Iorweth. The FWSW trio ask, do Plaid Cymru have a plan for Wales or just banking on being the least worst option?
