    Is Wales winning the wooden spoon for governance?

    While Wales continue to struggle on the field of play, there have been high profile and repeated problems with the WRU's institutional governance that are playing a significant role in the malaise about what was once unquesionably the national sport of Wales. It is, of course, not just the WRU that is struggling. Parliamentary scrutiny in both union and national parliaments is troublingly weak much of the time and there are countless other national Welsh institutions where better questions should be asked of their leadership. Is Wales uniquely poor in this regard and, if so, can we do anything about it in the next Senedd? We discuss! #Senedd26 #Wales #cymru Your hosts: Prof Laura McAllister of the Wales Governance Centre at Cardiff University, former national football team captain and Vice President at UEFA Lauren McEvatt, political commentator and former Conservative Special Advisor to the Wales Office in UK Govt Lee Waters, Labour Party Member of the Senedd for Llanelli and former Welsh Govt Minister Find us on the socials: YouTube: www.youtube.com/@WelshPoliticsPod TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@welshpolitics Instagram: www.instagram.com/welshpoliticspod/ X: www.x.com/WelshPolitics99 BlueSky: www.bsky.app/profile/welshpolitics.bsky.social Web: www.welsh-politics.com Produced by Richard Martin for Mimosa Cymru Artwork by Alison Hurren Music: Where Is It Instrumental by Jonworthymusic Press/Media queries to podcast@welsh-poilitics.com
