Plaid Cymru has made a final appeal to voters on the eve of the Caerphilly by-election urging everyone who wants to stop Reform UK to back Plaid Cymru’s Lindsay Whittle.
A poll released last week has shown that only Plaid Cymru has any chance of beating Reform UK in the upcoming Caerphilly by-election, with Reform UK in the lead with 42%, closely followed by Plaid with 38% of the vote share.
Labour have dropped drastically from their 2021 Senedd election standing, now with only 12% of the Caerphilly electorate intending on voting for them in next week’s by-election - proving that they are out of contention.
Plaid Cymru Leader Rhun ap Iorwerth said:
“People are telling us they’re coming to Plaid in their thousands because they want us, they want that positive change, and not Reform’s division.
“Only Plaid Cymru can beat Reform and a constituency poll last week clearly demonstrated it’s a two-horse race between both parties, with Labour trailing a distant third.
“We are asking all voters who want to stop Reform to lend their vote to Plaid Cymru this time.
Plaid Cymru candidate Lindsay Whittle, a lifelong local campaigner added,
“This is our community, and we’re not going to let Reform divide it. I’ve lived and worked here all my life - I know what matters to people in Caerphilly.
“Labour are out of the race. Only Plaid can stop Reform and make sure Caerphilly has a strong voice in the Senedd - someone who’ll fight for fair funding for Wales, stand up for our communities, and get things done for local people.
“People know me. They know I’ll fight for our community and they can trust Plaid Cymru to put Wales first, every time.”
“If you want to send a message to Starmer, elect a strong local champion, and stop Reform, thenvote Plaid Cymru tomorrow. It’s a close race and every single vote will count.”
