Reform UK has gained significant support in Wales, challenging traditional party dominance ahead of upcoming elections.
Key elections next May could be a "tipping point" for a prime minister "absolutely delusional" about the likely outcome in Wales, according to some Labour figures. Polls will take place in Wales, Scotland and some English councils, but the reverberations of the result will be felt in Downing Street. One Labour figure warned Sir Keir Starmer had "lost the room" with "sensible middle-ground people like me" and "if his days aren't numbered as prime minister, I don't know where we go".
