There have been two by elections recently for seats on Welsh County Councils.
One in Torfaen produced a real shock. Reform took the seat from Labour. There was no Plaid candidate.
In Carmarthenshire Plaid held a seat comfortably (397 votes), with Reform (145), and the Tories (139) ending up way behind. There was no Labour candidate.
A snapshot that reveals the realities behind Wales Labour’s current state of delusional complacency and dishonesty appears above.
These are only two by elections and as it happens Plaid didn’t run in one and Labour didn’t run in the other.
But even so it is worth aggregating the two. We find Reform with 36%, Plaid with 24%, Labour with 16% and the Tories with 8%. The rest are various Independents and Greens.
We have a zoom discussion on Tuesday night (11th March ) at 6.30 pm. No doubt the related matters of the next Senedd elections, closed lists and the threat from Reform will be a large part of the discussion.
