Wales 2026: The Battle Begins
from Quiet Riot · host Alex Andreou, Naomi Smith, Kenny Campbell
With just over a year to go until the 2026 Senedd elections, Welsh politics is anything but quiet. Reform UK is making noise, Plaid is recalibrating, and Labour is battling to stay visible - all as new EU-UK agreements raise questions about the future of flagship Welsh initiatives like the Taith scheme. Award-winning journalist Will Hayward joins Naomi Smith for a deep dive into the political forces shaping the next chapter of Welsh democracy. From Wrexham terraces to Cardiff Bay, it's all in flux and it all matters, and not just for Wales. ***SPONSOR US AT KO-FI.COM/QUIETRIOTPOD*** LINKS: Find Will Hayward's substack here, his podcast here, and his YouTube channel here.
