What is going to happen in British politics post-Budget? For an interesting perspective on how the tectonic plates have been changing in Wales ahead of next year’s Senedd elections and what this might mean for other parts of the United Kingdom, the following event with Guardian columnist Will Hayward will offer some answers.

Just over one in ten of the Caerphilly Senedd by-election voters in October supported the two parties that have dominated Welsh politics over the past 100 years.
Will’s talk  will look at the forces persuading Welsh voters to abandon long-held loyalties, primarily to Labour, and the chances of a First Minister from Plaid Cymru or Reform taking over in May after next year’s elections. Or, could old allegiances return? What impact will the new voting system have for an expanded Senedd?

Will Hayward is a multi-award-winning journalist based in Cardiff. A regular columnist for The Guardian, he has written two acclaimed books on Welsh politics. His newsletter, The Will Hayward Newsletter, was named Best Politics Newsletter at the publisher awards. Will appears regularly as a commentator on Times Radio, the BBC, and Sky News.
