In the run up to the Senedd & Holyrood elections, the Labour Party has started work on a number of projects aimed at remaking the way the UK works to provide a sustainable third way between independence and the status quo. The First Minister calls this 'home rule' and others are calling it 'Radical Federalism'. This discussion chaired by Professor Laura McAllister follows a proposal by the Radical Federalism project for a 'People's Convention' in Wales to lay the groundwork for a renegotiation of the union. Laura is joined by Mick Antoniw MS, Beth Winter MP, Prof. Kevin Morgan and Prof. James Mitchell.

The 2019 UK General Election saw the Conservative Party win a host of constituencies in Labour's heartlands of the North of England and North East Wales. These seats had become collectively known as 'The Red Wall' during the campaign and their loss was to cause the Labour Party to reflect seriously on its connection with many of these former industrial areas. To discuss the permanence (or not) of this change of allegiance and the societal, economic, and electoral factors that underpinned it, we are joined by Dr Thomas Prosser of Cardiff University, Phil Collins of The Draft and The New Statesman, and Paula Surridge of the University of Bristol and Deputy Director of the UK in a Changing Europe project.

The Wales Governance Centre at Cardiff University invited the First Minister to deliver a speech to mark Brexit Day. Taking in lessons from Wales's history, he strikes an optimistic tone for Wales's post-Brexit while addressing some real concerns about the challenges ahead.
We don't normally include event recordings on the Golau podcast feed (instead you can find a number of interesting speakers and public lectures on the Cardiff University podcast). However, this talk from the 2019 Wales Governance Centre Annual Lecture, delivered by Philip Rycroft (the former Permanent Secretary at the UK Government's Department for Exiting the EU) is… well… something else. The audience in Cardiff Bay's Pierhead found it interesting and provocative and we think you will too. In the talk Philip talks about the choppy waters ahead for the constitutional future of the UK and the challenges that will be posed for future prime ministers by the as the bonds holding together the nations of the British Union come under increasing strain.

One the day after the UK Government's EU (Withdrawal) Bill had its second reading in the UK Parliament the Wales Governance Centre co-hosted an event about the bill in central London. Among the speakers were MPs, academics and legal experts. One of the event's highlights was a talk delivered by Daniel Denman, Director of Legal Advisors in DExEU - The Department for Exiting the EU. He shared a fascinating insight into how the bill was drafted and why the widely-criticised Henry VIII powers were framed so broadly. In this episode of Golau we've reproduced his opening remarks in full to shed some light on the thinking behind the Bill.

This show features Prof Roger Scully, Prof Laura McAllister and Nye Davies of Thinking Wales. We discuss the results of the Welsh Political Barometer published on 1st June 2017 which seems to suggest that after weeks of volatile polling, the 2017 General Election seems to be drifting towards a two party contest in Wales, with projected votes for the Conservatives and Labour at their highest levels for 30 years. We also discuss questions of leadership in both Labour and the Conservatives as well as the challenges facing the media and public when political parties mix devolved and non-devolved issues in their manifestos. We also finish with a real shock - Prof. Scully makes a prediction, not a projection about the upcoming contest in WalesProf. Scully's blog post about these results: blogs.cardiff.ac.uk/electionsinwale…est-welsh-poll/ Thinking Wales: blogs.cardiff.ac.uk/thinking-wales/ Blurrt Podcast ‘Political Mosh Pit': www.spreaker.com/user/bengomedia/…and-more-debates Guardian Election Daily (Owen Jones says that Labour's Brexit strategy has been validated): www.theguardian.com/politics/audio/…n-daily-podcast BBC Wales Leaders Debate: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0…e-with-huw-edwards Stephen Cushion writes about the media's challenges reporting on mixed devolved and non-devolved issues during an election: theconversation.com/broadcast-elect…ed-issues-78431 Prof. McAllister's Blog, including constituency profiles: medium.com/@LauraMcAllister To receive the next show automatically, please subscribe and rate our show in your podcast player of choice.

These results follow the seismic results in the previous poll that showed the potential for a first Conservative majority in Wales in the modern era.
