Nigel Farage Names Helen Jenner as New Reform Wales Leader
Helen Jenner will lead Reform UK’s largest opposition group in the Senedd after Dan Thomas resigned following his arrest.
- On Monday, Nigel Farage announced Helen Jenner as the new leader of Reform Wales, replacing Dan Thomas who resigned last week following his arrest on suspicion of assault and controlling or coercive behaviour.
- Thomas stepped down last week for "personal reasons" after police arrested him on suspicion of assault and controlling or coercive behaviour; Farage insisted it had become untenable for him to continue.
- Born in Neath and raised on Anglesey, Jenner was elected Member of the Senedd for Bangor Conwy Mon in May and previously served as deputy leader of Reform Wales.
- Speaking in Cardiff, Farage described Jenner as "a determined campaigner" who would take the party forward as she now leads the largest opposition group in the Senedd.
- Securing 34 elected members, Reform Wales became the largest opposition group in Welsh history under Thomas; Jenner must now steady the party's leadership and maintain momentum within the Senedd.
