Did the First Minister raise the subject of Welsh independence during his telephone call with the Prime Minister following his appointment?
Answered by First Minister | Answered on 10/06/2026
My initial discussion with the Prime Minister focused on the priorities which I set out in the Senedd on 19 May, and how our two governments can work together to deliver for the people of Wales. I raised my intention to lead a national conversation on Wales’s constitutional future, including the Welsh Government’s ambition for independence, recognising that the people of Wales will ultimately decide the trajectory and pace of any change.
