Today we want your reaction to a turbulent 24 hours in the Senedd. Reform are looking for a new leader in Wales following Dan Thomas' resignation yesterday. He was arrested on the weekend on suspicion of assault and controlling and coercive behaviour. The MS for Casnewydd Islwyn said he had been "released without charge" and had "done nothing wrong". And on the same day, Reform MS Sarah Cooper-Lesadd defected to Plaid Cymru, saying Reform has no interest in Wales. All of the remaining support acts on Ed Sheeran's US tour have quit, after the rapper Macklemore was dropped from the line-up for making pro-Palestinian remarks on stage. Among them was Finneas, the brother of pop star Billie Eilish, who said in a statement: "Artists must not be silenced when they speak up for the oppressed." The announcements came hours after Sheeran said he would not be drawn into a public debate over Gaza, and stressed he was not responsible for Macklemore being removed from the tour.
