Dear Friend,

Happy New Year. Blwyddyn Newydd Dda.

As we enter 2026, Wales can finally begin to hope again.

This May, people across Wales have a real opportunity to vote for change. To reject managed decline and choose a better future for our country.

For too long, Labour and Plaid Cymru have operated in a cosy political bubble where accountability disappears, taxpayers’ money is wasted, and Welsh people are expected to accept failure as normal.

The results speak for themselves. Wales at the bottom of education league tables. NHS waiting times spiralling out of control. Businesses struggling to survive. Farmers punished by policies that defy common sense. And last year, we saw women’s basic rights dismissed and dangerous ideological experiments pushed onto children.

Wales deserves more.

Reform UK is the party that gets it. We believe in rewarding ambition, hard work and innovation. We believe in fixing our schools, our health service and our economy. We believe in putting Welsh families first and looking after the young, the elderly, the vulnerable and our veterans.

Family. Community. Country.

2026 can be a fresh start for Wales. The momentum is with Reform UK, and with your support, we can make the Welsh Dragon roar once more.

Thank you for standing with us and for believing in a better Wales. Not long left to wait now until that faith is rewarded.

Wishing you and your family a very happy, healthy New Year.

Blwyddyn Newydd Dda,

Laura Anne Jones MS, Reform UK Wales.
