Sunday Supplement

Available for 29 days

Fresh from Reform's annual conference in Birmingham, their chief whip in the Senedd, Llyr Powell reacts to all the weekend's events. Andy Burnham has done his first Prime Minister's Questions. Newport West and Islwyn MP Ruth Jones tells us how the parliamentary Labour Party thinks he's doing. Devolving policing has come back under discussion after the new PM said he's open to considering it. Professor Laura McAllister co-chaired the Independent Commission on the Constitutional Future of Wales that looked at it, and Lauren McEvatt was a member. They discuss the pros and cons. Laura Doel has taken up the role of General Secretary for TUC Cymru. She explains what she hopes to achieve in the role. And Sir Keir Starmer has announced he is stepping down as an MP to concentrate on world affairs. Writer and historian Tom Egerton illustrates what former PMs do with their time after leaving office. And following the success of meeting new members of the Senedd we've decided to get to meet more politicians. This week, it's our chance to get to know the MP for mid and south Pembrokeshire, Henry Tufnell.
