Plaid Cymru break 100-year Labour hold in Caerphilly by-election

Plaid Cymru have won the by-election for the seat of Caerphilly in the Senedd, the Welsh parliament. The left leaning nationalist party has been present for decades in Welsh politics but has had limited electoral impact. Its candidate, Lindsay Whittle was finally successful after 14 attempts in various polls over the last 42 years.

The Reform Party, who many predicted would win in fact came second - perhaps because of tactical voting in favour of Plaid by those who wanted to stem the influence of Nigel Farage on Welsh politics. Reform however know they’ve upset the traditional alignment and claim the result as a building block for next May’s Senedd elections. ------- CHAPTERS 0:00 - Plaid Cymru defeat Labour in Caerphilly 3:16 - Interview with Richard Wyn Jones ------- Get more news at our site - https://www.channel4.com/news/ Subscribe to our Substack newsletter: https://channel4news.substack.com/sub...
