Welsh election: Labour holds power with all results in - BBC News
Results and reaction after of the 60 Senedd seats were declared.
There were 60 seats up for grabs in the Welsh Parliament election - a unique election under the unique circumstances of the coronavirus pandemic.

Despite pledges to challenge all the way by Plaid Cymru and the Welsh Conservatives, it was Welsh Labour who emerged with half the seats, and pretty much a 40% share of the constituency votes.

It means Mark Drakeford's party will retain power in the Senedd.

Celebrating in Porthcawl, the Welsh Labour leader accepted the way they had dealt with Covid had been a "strong theme" on the doorstep.

But he's also vowed to be "radical" and "ambitious".

The only fly-in-the-ointment for Labour was the loss of the Vale of Clwyd to the Tories.

However, the Welsh Conservatives could not repeat their feat in the 2019 UK general election, and tear down the "red wall" of Labour seats in north-east Wales.

At the end of the day, the Conservatives are the second largest party, with 16 seats.

They also managed to take Brecon and Radnorshire off the Lib-Dems, and in Natasha Ashgar, they have the first women from a BAME background in the Senedd.

While Plaid Cymru's leader Adam Price has congratulated Mark Drakeford on the Labour victory, he has also acknowledged disappointment at their performance.

They return in third place with 13 seats, but it comes at a cost - the loss of former leader Leanne Wood and the Rhondda seat.

The Liberal Democrats remain with a single Senedd member, in their Welsh leader Jane Dodds.

The vote is over. And the work begins again next week, when the new Senedd will meet again - with some new faces, but ultimately, another Welsh Labour government.
