Impassioned plea for 'unity' from Ken Skates after holding onto Clwyd South seat

A POLITICIAN has made an impassioned plea for “unity” after holding onto his seat in the Senedd.
Cabinet minister Ken Skates was re-elected in Clwyd South today (Friday 7 May), despite seeing his majority over the Conservatives drop slightly from 3,016 to 2,913.
Mr Skates was able to steer clear of a repeat of the 2019 general election, where the constituency was won by the Tories in a shock result, by beating their candidate Barbara Hughes by 10,448 votes to 7,535.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who once stood to become an MP in Clwyd South, paid a flying visit to a farm in the area during the campaign as his party looked to make up ground.
