Reform UK in Wales names Helen Jenner as its new leader. Jenner represents Bangor Conwy Mon in the Senedd and was previously Reform’s Welsh deputy leader.
The announcement follows reported leadership changes in the party. The Evening Standard reports that Jenner replaces Dan Thomas, who is said to have been arrested on suspicion of assault and controlling or coercive behaviour. Other outlets in the set focus on Jenner’s appointment and her prior role, without adding further detail about the circumstances of the previous leader’s exit.
Overall, the coverage agrees on the core points: Jenner takes over the Wales leadership role, she previously served as deputy leader, and the transition comes as Dan Thomas steps aside amid arrest-related reporting from one source.
