Tactical voting would block Reform from
any meaningful power in Wales. If Labour, Lib Dem’s and Greens voters voted for Plaid that offers a significant majority over what is possible for the right wing bloc.
Pro-Welsh party vs Pro-Russian party posing as Pro-English. A difficult choice!
Who the fuck is being polled? I’ve NEVER been asked to do a poll in my 39 years on this earth. Are they sitting outside the local ‘spoons at 9am and doing a census with the first pint of the day?
This is depressing.
I cannot fathom why so many people would vote for a party that not only supports putin and Trump but hates Wales too.
Finally, about time Labour in Wales was sent packing.
Looks like Wales is joining the global trend for overtly nationalist government. Pick your poison.
For all the doom and gloom, I struggle to see how Reform will form a government with the Tories on the verge of being wiped out.
On the other hand, five years of conspiracies and stoking their supporters if they end up as the biggest party and don’t intend to be a minority government.
This is an absolutely shocking result for Labour – and it’s extremely well deserved. It’s about time a party that actually prioritises Wales got ahead in the polls.
Plaid’s sustained lead over Labour in the polls shows that Plaid Cymru is the natural left wing choice in Wales, and that it’s the only party capable of leading a government in Wales in 2026.
Likely outcome would be a Plaid / Labour coalition with Plaid as the biggest party?
I’m voting Plaid Cymru and trying to get everyone to do the same!
Dull people
I haven’t been to Wales since my grandfather died. He was a strong Plaid man and certainly a Welsh nationalist. This weekend I had a strong urge to go up to Cwmllynfech and have a walk around again. I was really disappointed to see Reform posters up in many of the windows of the street I visited so often in my youth.
Reform have no interest in making Welsh lives better.
A party who’ll stand up for Wales or a party who hate Wales and is mostly made up of ex members of a party the people of Wales despise. Depressing it’s that close
how what a shit choice the English party or the same old slop but green as Plaid wont get enough seats to get a majority and just backup Labour so nothing changes
Apparently you can insult people on here but at no point suggest that everyone gets a vote and is entitled to an opinion without a comment getting deleted. How strange we have become.
It would be interesting to see if there has been a surge in people registering to vote and how many voters have actually been polled rather than stopping people in the street and asking them.
I have been voting for 30 years and no-one has ever asked my opinion
Dewch ymlaen Plaid Cymru 🏴
I don’t understand why a blatantly English nationalist party which regards the other 3 nations as accessories is so popular in Wales and Scotland.
As far as I know, not yet launched in NI. I assume because they can’t decide whether they’re protestant English nationalists or Catholic English nationalists.
Has Plaid ate the labour vote or something?
This seems to be pointing to an unapologetically pro Wales government with no allegiance to a Westminster party for the first time ever.
I don’t see a formal coalition happening (apart from perhaps the 1 green seat), but Labour would surely support the Plaid budget. They can’t risk allowing Reform to find a way in should there be a subsequent election due to the legitimacy it would give them in a wider UK sense.
Cracking stuff! You’re all making valuable contributions to our vote share, so casual reminder to please, **please** keep calling anyone who votes for Reform – or is thinking about voting for Reform – any of the below (combinations are more effective).
1. Stupid
2. Racist
3. Ant-Welsh
All it does is makes people want to vote for us even more. So, once again, stay in your Reddit bubbles, keep the hate flowing through you, throw out the odd “gammon” and don’t forget the N word! (Not that one… “Nazis”).
There is nothing, NOTHING so peculiar in this day and age as a confidently incorrect leftie.
Yes but if you tactical vote Plaid and they get it, they’ll use that as a majority want independence when in fact they are only voting plaid to stop Reform.
I’m Welsh living in south Wales and I cannot fathom why people would want to elect an English nationalist party who don’t give a crap about Wales, same as the idiots who bought into farage over brexit, that was one massive tax dodge, reform are only in it for their rich masters
Reform targets a certain demographic of people. Sad but true. I would usually use the term thick as mince but I actually feel bad that people are being sold a lie by the corrupt powers that be. Upbringing and environmental factors contribute to how some people have a lower IQ which is prevalent in certain areas in Wales. Maybe those of us who have a better understanding should try and educate them on politics rather than vilify them. Awaiting downvotes with bated breath 😂😬
The reporting on this is ridiculous and so clearly biased.
As an example; Grangetown recently elected Green over Labour, while reform got a small portion of the vote. The polling showed Greens as the closest candidate.
The papers reported the then upcoming election as ‘Labour looks to defend seat against Reform’.
If I was of a more conspiratorial mind I would say there seems to be some kind of concerted effort by the press to legitimise Reform as a candidate.
