Delyth Jewell MS - 'create jobs for young people outside Cardiff'

Tackling child poverty is another key issue for this Senedd to address, Ms Jewell said. “We still have a situation where one in three children in Wales – and that’s even worse in some of our communities – live in poverty,” she said. “We need to stop that. There’s nothing inevitable about that needing to happen. “I will be considering it my mission to be holding the Welsh Government to account to make sure that we eradicate child poverty.” She stood against Hefin David for the constituency seat in Caerphilly, and although Mr David increased his majority, securing more than 3,500 more votes, Ms Jewell returned the highest vote count for Plaid in the area since the very first then-Welsh Assembly election.

Senedd Election 2021: Meet the new MSs for South Wales East

In the regional election, voters chose from a list of parties to represent them. The South Wales East region includes the constituencies of Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly, Islwyn, Merthyr Tydfil and Rhymney, Monmouth, Newport East, Newport West and Torfaen. The elected members for the region are Delyth Jewell and Peredur Owen Griffiths of Plaid Cymru and Laura Anne Jones and Natasha Asghar of the Conservative Party. Although Labour won 85,988 votes, the regional vote system takes into account constituencies won by each party within the region. Votes cast for parties which have won constituencies are effectively ‘worth’ less, and, as Labour won seven of the eight constituencies within South Wales East it is almost impossible for the party to win regional seats too.
