| סיכום: | General elections offer opportunities to study Britain’s political life, in particular the position and strength of each party in the four nations which make up the United Kingdom.

Welsh Labour obtained good results, mainly thanks to the prominent role given to Carwyn Jones, First Minister and leader of the party. He adopted an ambivalent attitude: he was extremely visible on the question Brexit but he refused to limit campaign debates to this issue. |
