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

A discussion programme analysing the Senedd election and its aftermath, with James Williams.

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.
