Jane Dodds Response to the Defection of James Evans
5 Feb 2026
Responding to the defection of James Evans to Reform UK, Senedd Member for Mid and West Wales Jane Dodds said:
"By switching parties without facing the voters, James Evans has broken the trust of people who backed him in Brecon and Radnorshire who believed he would provide steady representation for this area. That trust matters in a rural constituency like ours, where politics is personal and reputation counts.
"The Welsh Liberal Democrats are ambitious for Brecon and Radnoreshire, and will fight to protect our local hospitals, revive our local high streets, and fix childcare."
