He's not known for his fashion sense, so maybe it's not a surprise that an eye-catching tie worn by First Minister Mark Drakeford was commented on by his colleagues. And there was a rather lovely story behind it.
Conservative leader Andrew RT Davies couldn't let such a colourful tie pass, and said: "Could I comment on the First Minister's tie? Looking very loud today, with a knot at the top of it, which isn't usual for the First Minister, in fairness. Perhaps it's the end-of-term feeling that he has."

Mr Drakeford then explained it was knitted for him by an elderly lady who was a Ukrainian WWII refugee who had asked him to wear it in the chamber.
"I'll offer you a brief explanation of my tie, which is that it is a tie knitted for me by a very elderly lady who came to this country immediately after the Second World War as a refugee from Ukraine. This knot is a Ukranian design which she knitted and sent in recognition of the work that, right across Wales, is going on to welcome people from Ukraine, as he discussed with me only a couple of weeks ago, here to Wales. On our last session before the break, Llywydd, I thought I would wear it in recognition of her wish, to demonstrate that. So, thank you for that."
