episode WELSH LABOUR: A New Political Generation and the Fight for Wales’ Future w/ Chris Carter cover

WELSH LABOUR: A New Political Generation and the Fight for Wales’ Future w/ Chris Carter

In this episode of Wales in Context, Kaiesha Page speaks to Welsh Labour candidate Chris Carter about the future of Welsh politics, the pressures facing a generation shaped by the 2008 financial crash, and why housing, economic growth and community are becoming defining political issues in modern Wales. Chris discusses his journey from local Labour activist to Senedd candidate, his background in polling and the Army Reserve, and why he believes younger politicians are approaching politics differently from previous generations. The conversation explores polling misconceptions, the rise of multi-party politics in Wales, Welsh Labour’s record after 27 years in power, and growing public frustration with political systems that many feel no longer work for them. The episode also examines belonging, political identity, and why community still matters deeply in Wales — from party activism to neighbourhood connections and national identity.

PLAID CYMRU: From Councillor to Senedd Candidate: Sera Evans on standing for the Senedd

The 2026 Senedd election is the first under Wales’ new expanded parliamentary system: bigger constituencies, more Members, and proportional representation. One of those new seats is Afan Ogwr Rhondda — a politically fascinating merger of former Labour-heavy valley communities and industrial coastal towns. Plaid Cymru has put forward Sera Evans as its lead candidate. A councillor in Treorchy and a long-time community figure, Evans is now making the case that this new political map needs new political leadership.

Liker at det er både Podcaster (godt utvalg) og lydbøker i samme app, pluss at man kan holde Podcaster og lydbøker atskilt i biblioteket.
Bra app. Oversiktlig og ryddig. MYE bra innhold⭐️⭐️⭐️
