No chance we're scrapping Senedd, says top Tory

by Abigail

Conservative supporters opposed to devolution have been told scrapping the Senedd is "for the birds" by the party's leader in Cardiff Bay.

Welsh Tories gather in Llangollen, Denbighshire, this weekend with Darren Millar trying to navigate choppy waters and avoid big political hazards in his path.

Grassroots discontent with devolution – and Millar's stance on it – has spilled over in recent weeks as the party also struggles against the rising surge of Reform and dreadful recent polling.

As he prepares for the party's spring conference, Millar has accused some of his critics of "hiding behind pseudonyms".

Some grassroots members have been publicly critical of Millar's pro-devolution stance and what they see as an implication that any candidates for next year's Senedd election have to back it.

A recent article on the website Conservative Home, written under a pen name, accused Millar of declaring "war" and ended with the words "Millar must go".
