Plaid Cymru leader steps down following report into the party’s culture

ADAM PRICE has announced he is stepping down as leader of Plaid Cymru.

This follows publication of the Prosiect Pawb report that found a culture of harassment, bullying and misogyny from within party.

The announcement was made following a meeting of the party’s ruling body, the National Executive Committee (NEC) last night.

Plaid Cymru have said a new party leader will be in place in the summer.

In a letter to the party chairman, Adam Price said: “You have my personal assurance that I will continue to serve my country, my constituents and our party with determination and enthusiasm.”

Welsh Conservative leader, Andrew RT Davies, said: “I have no doubt Adam Price’s departure is a moment of personal sadness for him.

“Following the recent report into the culture within their party, it became clear Plaid Cymru politicians no longer had confidence in his leadership, so his departure became inevitable.”
