  • Which parties care about the Senedd?
    A cheeky bonus episode ahead of the Caerphilly by-election reaction on Friday!Robin, Mel and Will dive into some audience questions including why the Greens haven’t cut through in Wales (yet) and whether the main UK parties really care about the Senedd.We also discover Will’s doppelganger and Mel gives a sneak peak into the depressing world of dating apps. For Wales, See Wales will be releasing a reaction podcast to the Caerphilly by-election in Friday, October 24.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. Plus we have some great merchandise which you can buy here: https://for-wales-see-wales.teemill.com/ Get in touch at [email protected] For Wales, See Wales is a HayMan Media Productionhttps://www.haymanmedia.co.uk/

  • Why we can't pretend they don't exist
    The gang are back to with a “satellite episode” (don’t ask) to answer some listener questions, including how to converse with people across the divide, the lack of female voices in politics, and, of course, whether Mel likes Mamma Mia or not.We also hear about Eluned Morgan’s take on Betsi Cadwaladr Health Board and a possible tease for a Christmas special episode?

  • Keir Starmer can’t say Eluned Morgan’s name
    This week Will is recovering after the Labour conference in Liverpool. The gang discuss Eluned Morgan dancing (again), whether it’s fair to call Plaid Cymru "poison" and why the boys that can moon walk get all the ladies. They also discuss the joys of an “event appropriate” twmpath and dig into the question of why Keir Starmer LOVES flags so much.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.

  • Who's the most popular political leader in Wales?
    The pod is back (a day later than usual) and the team is talking polls. New polling for Wales has put Labour down on 14% whereas Reform and Plaid Cymru are up on 30%. This will massively change Welsh politics if true and the trio look at what this would mean in the Senedd after May.The gang also explores the bold claim from Mel that “horses aren’t posh in the countryside”...They also look at the ratings for individual leaders and discover who is the most popular (or should that be least hated?).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.
