The Welsh Conservatives are "in a dire state", riven by infighting and toxic splits, a columnist for the Daily Telegraph has said. Writing for the London-based newspaper, Kara Kennedy said that the party was a "sinking ship".
Ms Kennedy argued that the Conservatives in Wales were split between those who wanted to "kowtow to the overwhelmingly left-wing majority in Wales" and take a more centrist approach to policy, and the "true blues" who have "dug their heels in, hoping for a genuine Conservative force to return to Wales once more".
Ms Kennedy refers to Mr Sunak’s exclusive opiniohn piece for WalesOnline, regarding his aims to “bring everyone back together” in which he said that as prime minister, he would change his approach to Wales because it “deserves better.” But Ms Kennedy criticised Mr Sunaks’ celebration of his Welsh counterparts who he had said were “doing a fantastic job to hold Labour to account.”
