Thank you for visiting my website. May I take this opportunity to thank the volunteers and members of the public whose efforts have resultedWilliam in the election of two Welsh Conservative candidates from the South Wales East regional list at the May 2011 elections to the National Assembly for Wales. Having been re-elected I look forward to scrutinising the performance of the new Labour-led Assembly Government as well as championing the excellent produce, places and businesses that are to be found in the South Wales East region. The region additionally overwhelmingly rejected the AV voting method, while throughout the campaign voters frequently raised concerns regarding Welsh Labour’s record on major issues such as the economy and health. Once again thank you for your interest in my website and please contact my office with your issues and queries.  

Regards

William Graham 

Conservative AM for South Wales East.
