• Launch the Manifestos!
    Mar 12 2026

    A busy week; you wait for one manifesto launch and then three come along at once.

    Deserted by Mel, the plucky boys dig into Labour's manifesto offerings. Will then wonders aloud why he was denied entry to the Reform campaign launch. Turns out, he could have just read it all in the Welsh Conservative Manifesto anyway!

    Also!! Another LIVE show is coming. Come along and see us at the Glee Club in Cardiff on Saturday 23rd May for a post-election round up! Tickets and info here...

    About FWSW

    100 years ago if you had picked up the Encyclopaedia Britannica and looked up “Wales” you would have seen four words - ‘For Wales, see England.’

    This implied that Wales was no different to England. Not worthy of its own description. Second fiddle. Frankly, it implied that Wales was simply less of a country.

    That is why we have launched our podcast: For Wales, See Wales.

    It is a weekly look at Welsh politics looking at the issues that matter to people here.

    There are so many people who are passionately Welsh, who care about Wales and want to better understand what is happening here.

    The more informed people are on Welsh issues, the more they are able to hold politicians and decision makers to account for the things that affect their lives.

    Just as importantly, we want to have a good laugh talking and learning about the country we love.

  • Plaid Cymru’s plan for government, LIVE in Aberystwyth
    Mar 5 2026

    This week the pod is on the road with a live show at the wonderful Arad Goch, Aberystwyth.

    We discuss the Plaid Cymru conference, the Rhunicorn’s speech and why it is going to be SUPER hard for whoever wins the Welsh election.

    The great thing about doing the pod live is we get to say things we can’t in a normal show. The bad thing is we can’t put it all in the edit! This pod is a (very) shortened version of our Aber show.

    Also!! Another LIVE show is coming. Come along and see us at the Glee Club in Cardiff on Saturday 23rd May for a post-election round up! Tickets and info here...

  • What word would you use to describe Reform?
    Feb 25 2026

    This week the gang gets lost in a world of word clouds. With the Senedd election only nine weeks away the look at pooling which suggests how voters in Wales actually feel about some of the political parties.

    (Spoiler alert) the biggest word for Reform was “racist” which begs the question of why people think this and whether it actually hurts Nigel Farage’s party's ability to win?

    And finally they talk about the political hero we never knew we needed - Sir Oink-a-lot…
