    Only Three Votes - The Battle...

    "These were events which prefigured and did much to shape the political battles of the last half century, the devolution half century in Wales. They shaped the non-nationalist, but distinctive Welsh social democratic preferences of the last sixty years. For anyone interested in the formative moments of today's Wales, this is both essential and highly entertaining reading." – Mark Drakeford, First Minister of Wales 2018-2024
    It was a period of Welsh politics that has become etched in the collective memory. The rise of a Welsh independence movement and the first Plaid Cymru Member of Parliament. The Labour Party searching for a way forward in a political climate that was riven with dissension and eventual rancour. It was a fight for social democracy against the centralised power of the British state.
    The first battlefield was Carmarthen and the protagonists were Gwynfor Evans, the leader of Plaid Cymru and the young Labour hopeful Gwynoro Jones. Their rivalry lasted throughout the Seventies. They fought three elections and on one occasion the result was decided by just three votes.
    This book tells the story of a political rivalry which was also very personal. It was a local confrontation that drew on national battlelines. It was about Carmarthen and Wales. Both men had their vision of the Wales they wanted to fight for. These pages unfold the story from Gwynoro Jones' perspective for the first time, in an attempt to redress the imbalance of Gwynfor Evans' story dominating the narrative for so long.
    Drawing on an extensive archive, collected at the time, Gwynoro shows how the two fought their politics in the newspapers of the day and through speeches on constituency public platforms, where they argue about the Welsh language and devolution, Europe and agriculture. But they only ever actually met once. Gwynoro also reflects on how he views those turbulent years today.
    Through their wranglings, a picture is also painted of Welsh politics in the decade that led up to the referendum on devolution in 1979, as Plaid and Labour searched for a way forward. And ultimately, a generation later, to the creation of a parliament for Wales.

    Populism has become one of the most significant political phenomena of the 21st century, influencing governance on a global scale. The term "populism" has been used to describe a wide range of political movements, parties, and ideologies, but its meaning often remains fluid and context-dependent. At its core, populism is a political approach that seeks to represent the interests of "the people" against a perceived elite or establishment that is seen as corrupt, self-serving, and out of touch with the common citizen. While this core idea is consistent, the ways in which populism is expressed and implemented vary dramatically depending on the political, cultural, and economic context. 
    The roots of populism stretch back to the 19th century, with early movements advocating for the empowerment of ordinary citizens, particularly in agricultural societies. However, the modern manifestation of populism began to take shape in the mid-20th century and accelerated in the 21st century, fueled by growing disillusionment with traditional political elites. The rise of social media, economic inequality, and a globalized world have all contributed to populism's recent resurgence, particularly in Western democracies. 
    Contemporary populism is often characterized by a charismatic leader who claims to speak directly for the people, bypassing traditional political institutions and sometimes challenging the rule of law. These leaders often portray themselves as outsiders, positioned against the political establishment, and frequently use simple, direct rhetoric that resonates with disaffected voters. The populist narrative, which pits the common people against the elite, is one of the most powerful tools in shaping public opinion and driving political discourse.

    Timothy Venning's series of alternative histories explores the pathways of British events from the Anglo-Saxon Age to the English Civil War. In this volume, he presents an in-depth analysis of the Tudor period. Venning discusses the fateful moments at which history could easily have taken a different turn. 
     
     
     
    In a fascinating series of "what if" scenarios, Venning presents a detailed look at the possible and likely results. While speculative, the scenarios are all plausible and rooted in a firm understanding of actually events and their context. In so doing, Venning gives listeners a clearer understanding of the factors at play and why things happened the way they did, as well as a tantalizing view of what might have been. 
     
     
     
    Key questions discussed include: 
     
     
     
    ● Did the pretenders Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck ever have a realistic chance of a successful invasion/coup? 
     
     
     
    ● If Henry Fitzroy, Henry VIIIs illegitimate son, had not died young, might he have been a suitable King? 
     
     
     
    ● What if Edward VI had not died at fifteen but reigned into the 1560s and 70s? 
     
     
     
    ● How might the Spanish Armada have succeeded in landing an army in England, and with what likely outcome?
