"I will never vote for Plaid Cymru again." This is just one of the comments in response to the party's handling of the disciplinary matters around Jonathan Edwards MP.
Plaid leader Adam Price and Westminster leader Liz Savile Roberts have both apologised over how the return from suspension of Carmarthen East and Dinefwr MP Jonathan Edwards was handled after he accepted a police caution after assaulting his wife in 2020. Mr Edwards had been set to return as a Plaid MP until his estranged wife said she was appalled by this.
Ms Savile Roberts, Plaid's Westminster group leader, has said that "the voice of the victim matters above all else" and during the last few months she discovered "the party had not sought the opinion of the victim since the event in 2020". She says changes need to be made to the party's processes.
