Welsh cold-shoulder Tories
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.An opinion poll published yesterday suggests that Wales may become a Tory-free zone on 1 May.
The survey of 1,000 electors, carried out by Market Research Wales for the Western Mail on 20 and 21 March, says that when undecided voters and no-voters are eliminated support for Labour is 64 per cent, compared with 49.5 per cent at the 1992 election when the party won 27 of Wales's 38 seats. Support for the Tories - who hold six seats - has fallen from 28.6 per cent in 1992 to 19 per cent, with Liberal Democrats down from 12 per cent to 7 per cent and Plaid Cymru static at 9 per cent.
