Key Statistics for Preseli Pembrokeshire May 2010 Key Statistics for Preseli Pembrokeshire May 2010 This paper provides key statistics under a number of topic headings for the National Assembly for Wales constituency of Preseli Pembrokeshire. This is one of a series of Members’ Research Service profiles for the National Assembly for Wales’ constituencies and electoral regions in Wales. These profiles replace those published in 2007. The National Assembly for Wales is the democratically elected body that represents the interests of Wales and its people, makes laws for Wales and holds the Welsh Government to account. The Members’ Research Service is part of the National Assembly for Wales. We provide confidential and impartial research support to the Assembly’s scrutiny and legislation committees, and to all 60 individual Assembly Members and their staff. Members’ Research Service briefings are compiled for the benefit of Assembly Members and their support staff. Authors are available to discuss the contents of these papers with Members and their staff but cannot advise members of the general public. We welcome comments on our briefings; please post or email to the addresses below.

Enquiry no: 09 / 4097 Key Statistics for Preseli Pembrokeshire May 2010 Rachel Dolman Paper Number: 10 / 043 Summary This profile provides a statistical overview of Preseli Pembrokeshire. Detailed statistics are presented in sections one to six of the paper. Summary of results mid 2007 population estimates show that around 73,100 people live in Preseli Pembrokeshire. With 62 people per square kilometre the area is less densely populated than Wales as a whole; a higher share of the population in the area (24 per cent) than in Wales (21 per cent) is of retirement age; the 2008 Annual Population Survey estimated 28 per cent of people aged 3 or more can speak Welsh, compared with 27 per cent across Wales; turn-out for the constituency ballot in the 2007 National Assembly for Wales elections was 50.9 per cent. This was above that for Wales (43.5 per cent). The winning party was the Conservatives; in February 2010, around 3.6 per cent of the working age population in Preseli Pembrokeshire were claiming Jobseeker's Allowance. The equivalent figure for Wales was 4.6 per cent. In 2008, around 73 per cent of working age adults were in employment compared with 71 per cent in Wales; 2006-08 data show the average gross weekly earnings for those working in Preseli Pembrokeshire was around £464. The equivalent figure for Wales was £470; in 2007, an estimated 12 per cent of working age adults in Preseli Pembrokeshire had no qualifications, this compares with 15 per cent in Wales; Welsh Health Survey results for 2003-07 showed that, around 23 per cent of adults in Preseli Pembrokeshire reported that they currently smoke and 31 per cent reported drinking more than the daily guidelines on at least one day in the past week. The equivalent figures for Wales were 26 per cent and 36 per cent respectively; and the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation 2008 ranks specific small areas in Wales in terms of deprivation. In Preseli Pembrokeshire, none of the areas fall in the 10% most deprived areas in Wales and overall the majority of its areas are less deprived than the Wales average.

It is part of a series of profiles for the Assembly constituencies and electoral regions in Wales. These profiles are based on the constituencies and electoral regions introduced for the Assembly elections in 2007, and replace the profiles published by the Member’s Research Service in March 2007. A separate profile has been produced for each constituency. Statistics for the five electoral regions have been brought together in a single paper. About the data The tables in this paper show statistics for Preseli Pembrokeshire along with comparable figures for the electoral region it is part of (Mid & West Wales1) and for Wales as a whole. The information is drawn from a number of different sources. Therefore, not all information presented in the profile relates to the same time period. The time periods are shown in the tables, and details on the data sources and definitions used are provided in section 7 (Sources and notes). Results presented in this profile should not be compared with those in the 2007 profile because, although the indicators may appear to be the same, a number of the data sources and definitions used have changed. Since electoral geographies do not form a standard statistical geography, and the areas covered are small, the availability of robust data is limited. Therefore, it is not possible to include statistics on all topics of interest, for example, child poverty, those not in employment, education or training (NEETs), and social services. For the same reason, these profiles do not contain detailed commentary and charts showing trends. Many of the results are taken from surveys. Therefore, the results shown are estimates of the true value and will be subject to sampling error. Because of the small numbers of survey respondents in each constituency, many of the estimates are not robust enough to say whether the results for the constituency are statistically different from that of Wales as a whole. Due to robustness, some figures in the tables are rounded to whole numbers rather than to 1 decimal place. An electronic version of this paper is available on the Members’ Research Service pages of the National Assembly for Wales’ website. 1 The electoral region of Mid & West Wales contains the following constituencies: Brecon & Radnorshire, Carmarthen East & Dinefwr, Carmarthen West & South Pembrokeshire, Ceredigion, Dwyfor Meirionnydd, Llanelli, Montgomeryshire and Preseli Pembrokeshire. 1 Map of Preseli Pembrokeshire 2 1.

  • ROBERT GERAINT GRUFFYDD Robert Geraint Gruffydd 1928–2015
    ROBERT GERAINT GRUFFYDD Robert Geraint Gruffydd 1928–2015 GERAINT GRUFFYDD RESEARCHED IN EVERY PERIOD—the whole gamut—of Welsh literature, and he published important contributions on its com- plete panorama from the sixth to the twentieth century. He himself spe- cialised in two periods in particular—the medieval ‘Poets of the Princes’ and the Renaissance. But in tandem with that concentration, he was renowned for his unique mastery of detail in all other parts of the spec- trum. This, for many acquainted with his work, was his paramount excel- lence, and reflected the uniqueness of his career. Geraint Gruffydd was born on 9 June 1928 on a farm named Egryn in Tal-y-bont, Meirionnydd, the second child of Moses and Ceridwen Griffith. According to Peter Smith’sHouses of the Welsh Countryside (London, 1975), Egryn dated back to the fifteenth century. But its founda- tions were dated in David Williams’s Atlas of Cistercian Lands in Wales (Cardiff, 1990) as early as 1391. In the eighteenth century, the house had been something of a centre of culture in Meirionnydd where ‘the sound of harp music and interludes were played’, with ‘the drinking of mead and the singing of ancient song’, according to the scholar William Owen-Pughe who lived there. Owen- Pughe’s name in his time was among the most famous in Welsh culture. An important lexicographer, his dictionary left its influence heavily, even notoriously, on the development of nineteenth-century literature. And it is strangely coincidental that in the twentieth century, in his home, was born and bred for a while a major Welsh literary scholar, superior to him by far in his achievement, who too, for his first professional activity, had started his career as a lexicographer.

Package North Wales Police ( UK ) Gwynedd Division Profile of the Division The mountainous heartland of Wales, and of the County of Gwynedd in particular has long been recognised as being of special significance because of its spectacular scenery and cultural traditions. Its dramatic beauty, however, is not - and has not been for many generations - completely natural, but is rather a blend of the forces of nature and the hand of man, both of which continue to shape its development. It is an area steeped in great history, but nevertheless subject of national contemporary socio-economic pressures, and the effects of a vibrant tourist industry. Gwynedd covers by far the largest geographical area (629,000 acres) of the six Unitary Authorities in North Wales, and it extends from the City of Bangor in the North to the Dovey Bridge near Machynlleth in the South, and from Aberdaron near the tip of the Lleyn Peninsula in the west to Abergwyngregyn in the East. (The Gwynedd Police Divisional boundary is coterminous with the limits of the Gwynedd Council Unitary Authority area). Gwynedd's neighbouring Unitary Authorities (and Police Divisions) are Anglesey to the North, and Conwy and Denbighshire to the East, whilst its Southern and South Eastern borders mark the boundary between the North Wales and Dyfed-Powys Police areas.

  • The 2015 Election in Wales Was the Failure of Labour’S Much-Vaunted Ground Campaign
    The 2015 General Election in Wales Roger Scully Wales Governance Centre Cardiff University [email protected]; @roger_scully http://blogs.cf.ac.uk/electionsinwales/ Abstract This paper examines the 2015 UK general election in Wales. It first outlines the political background to the election, before going on to assess the content and conduct of the campaign and the parties’ relative success in targeting their campaigning efforts. The results are then examined in detail: these show that while Labour, for the twentieth successive general election in Wales, won the most votes and a majority of seats, it also suffered an unexpected net loss of seats; meanwhile the Conservatives won more seats in Wales than at any election since the heyday of Thatcherism. UKIP confirmed their arrival as a serious element of party politics in Wales, but the Liberal Democrats lost more than two-thirds of their 2010 vote. British Election Study data is then used to model the main factors shaping patterns of party support. Finally, the conclusion assesses the implications of the 2105 election for the future of party politics in Wales, and for the 2016 National Assembly for Wales election. Paper presented to the Annual Conference of the Political Studies Association specialist group on Elections, Public Opinion and Parties, Cardiff, September 2015. 1. Introduction The 2015 general election in Wales was, on the surface, a rather undramatic event. In sharp contrast to Scotland, most parties experienced only small changes in vote share from 2010, while only four of the forty Welsh seats actually changed hands. But while inevitably less dramatic than events in Scotland, the election in Wales still had plenty of interest.
