Latest News About Eluned Morgan loses seat in Senedd

Wales trends showed the 2026 Senedd election returned Plaid Cymru as the largest party with 43 assembly seats, while Welsh Labour collapsed to 9 assembly seats. With no party reached a majority, Plaid Cymru pursued a minority arrangement, and First Minister Eluned Morgan fell from her seat. The election brought in a larger Senedd with 96 seats elected by closed-list proportional representation, and turnout hit a record 51.6%, with NHS funding staying a dominant campaign issue. Plaid Cymru hinted groundwork for a Welsh independence White Paper, though a referendum isn't planned in the first term.
