Brexit Party Welsh Assembly group to be set up
Nigel Farage welcomes the AMs who want to join his party
The Brexit Party has no policies beyond its vow to fight for Brexit. Mr Farage promised"radical change policies".The leader admitted to"one or two cross words with all of them" over the years -"that's all forgotten now", he said. But he told BBC Wales the defining moment was the"interference" by UKIP HQ in the Newport West by-election, deciding to"displace the candidate that the South Wales East region had selected", Stan Edwards, and replace him with AM Neil Hamilton.
He asked the presiding officer to use"some discretion" to consider the matter over a"period of time" to allow AMs to consider their own thoughts and responses.A Plaid Cymru spokesperson said the Brexit Party group had"no democratic mandate and they should not be permitted to form a group nor given access to public resources and funding in the Senedd.
Assuming existing assembly rules are followed, the Brexit Party will have achieved recognition and representation in one of the UK's parliaments without even facing an election.
