    A look back at the 2026 Senedd election and how it's been going so far in the Senedd

    02/08/2026 | 55 mins.
    As it's the summer break, we've taken the opportunity to reflect on Senedd politics over the last three months since that seismic election in May. Plaid Cymru made history becoming the largest party, Reform came from nothing to being official opposition and the former big beasts in Welsh politics were decimated. From Plaid Cymru, Chief Whip and Cabinet Member for Culture and Sport Heledd Fychan joins us in the studio. Cai Parry-Jones, Reform's finance spokesperson gives his take on how things are going so far for his party. And Conservative, Labour and Liberal Democrat MSs, Andrew RT Davies, Jayne Bryant and Jane Dodds reflect on the terrible result for them and how they've managed in the new, enlarged Senedd. Also joining James Williams in the studio, political correspondent Cemlyn Davies with his analysis.

    Three Welsh MPs in the new cabinet, Kemi Badenoch, the Llywydd, Sikhs in Wales and a new MS

    26/07/2026 | 54 mins.
    With three Welsh MPs in Andy Burnham's new cabinet, we speak with Lord Hain, former Secretary of State for Wales about how Stephen Kinnock will go about the job, and changes the Labour grandee would like to see made to pension provision. Kemi Badenoch was in Newport and James went to see her. She has a very positive view of the future of the Welsh Conservatives. Huw Irranca-Davies has been Llywydd for a little over two months. He explains the highs and lows of his new job. And an exhibition has opened in Cardiff central library documenting the history of Sikhs in Wales. Harry Singh whose grandfather established the capital's first gurdwara in the 1950s is with us in the studio.
    Continuing our series meeting new members of the Senedd, this week we have the company of Alun Cox, one of Plaid Cymru's three MSs representing Afan Ogwr Rhondda.

    Andy Burnham has replaced Keir Starmer as Labour leader, and will soon be PM. Newport West and Islwyn MP Ruth Jones looks back at Starmer's legacy and ahead to Burnham's tenure. Police are investigating a death threat against a Senedd member, and Conservative MS Natasha Asghar has had her office window smashed. She tells us about her experience. Gorffwysfa is the original name of Canada's official residence for their prime minister. Monocle's man in Toronto Tomos Lewis knows all about how that name came about and how the building is in great need of repair. Gwynfor Evans won Plaid Cymru's first parliamentary seat in Carmarthen in July 1966. His son Guto Prys ap Gwynfor was there and recalls its significance.
