Andrew RT Davies has resigned as the leader of the Conservative Party in the Welsh Parliament after narrowly surviving a confidence vote. His resignation comes amid internal party dissent and criticism regarding the party’s direction. In his resignation letter, Davies described his position as ‘untenable’ and expressed concerns over the party’s future electoral prospects in light of a new voting system set for 2026. He had been in leadership for over a decade, becoming party leader in 2011 and facing increasing pressure from both colleagues and opposing parties.
