The Rural Vote

With a back drop of a Covid pandemic, we head to the polls next month for the Senedd elections, this week we discuss the issues for people living and working in rural Wales

Life has changed for those who live and work in the Welsh countryside - from pandemic recovery, to the future for farming policy and payments and of course the drive to fight climate change and cut our emissions, this could potentially be a significant election for our rural communities. In a special edition of Country Focus, Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Wales' Environment and Rural Affairs Correspondent, Steffan Messenger is joined by a panel of experts to discuss the issues the politicians need to address to attract the rural vote.
