U.K. REFORM IN CONTEXT: ANALYZING FARAGE’S CALL FOR WALES’S MOVEMENT.
Farage, a former leader of UKIP, has called for Wales to follow in Scotland’s footsteps by forming a “proper government” and quitting the House of Commons. In response, Plaid Cymru’s parliamentary leader, namely Dai Lloyd, has underscored the importance of Welsh representation within the House of Commons and expressed concerns regarding the potential economic harm that might result from implementing Farage’s proposed move. Whilst expressing his admiration for Scottish devolution, Farage has downplayed the experiences of Wales and England, stating that it would be easier for Wales to create a successful administration due to there being fewer complications. Plaid’s Deputy Leader, namely Lloyd Elis-evans, has commended the leadership that Wales has demonstrated in lieu of the governing administration, which has been dominated by Westminster for over a century.
