The Welsh Conservative conference is usually held in Llangollen in March. This time it was in Newtown in May because post-pandemic availability meant the usual set up wasn't available.
So you may forgive Andrew RT Davies, the leader of the Welsh Conservative group in the Senedd, forgetting where he was. When he stood on the stage he not only forgot the name of the usual host town but stumbled and eventually just gave up and said "north Wales" and yet the limited number of delegates in the hall gave him a round of applause.
The South Wales Central AM told the conference audience that he'd had a "Four Weddings and a Funeral" journey to Newtown, setting off in a Mini and only just making his speech slot. He used his speech to talk about the policy areas where he wants to stand apart from Westminster, speaking about how he wants St David's Day to be a bank holiday and HS2 funding to come to Wales.
