Quiet Riot – WALES SPECIAL with Will Hayward

Listen on

Episode notes

Electoral changes are a-coming in Wales, but that's not the only challenge facing politicians in Cymru.


It's a country of contrasts, from the rugged scars of the Valleys and the beauty of Bannau Brycheiniog to the urban bustle of Cardiff and Swansea, and the bookish haven of Hay-on-Wye.


Naomi Smith is joined by journalist Will Hayward for a timely stock-take of political life in a part of the country that we Quiet Rioters love, and a look at the contrasting fortunes and, indeed, difficulties looming for its political leaders.
