Llŷr Gruffydd MS has been nominated unanimously as Acting Leader by Plaid Cymru Senedd Group. Mr Gruffydd’s nomination is subject to ratification by Plaid Cymru National Council on Saturday.
It comes after Adam Price told party members he is quitting as leader days after a review found a culture of harassment, bullying and misogyny in the party. In his resignation letter, he said he no longer had the support of colleagues after the report was published last week.
Addressed to Plaid Cymru chair Marc Jones, Mr Price wrote: “We have driven the agenda for change in a way that no previous opposition party has dreamt of doing. The Cooperation Agreement was truly ground-breaking and has delivered life-changing benefits to our children, families and friends all over Wales.
