Vote for Welsh Liberal Democrats and Peter Black on the regional list
These are the results of the Welsh General Election for the South Wales West region in 2011, the last time the seats were fought:
[Additional Member System] (4 Seats)
Suzy Davies, Conservative 27457 17.79% (2)
Bethan Jenkins, Plaid Cymru 21258 13.77% (1)
Peter Malcolm Black, Lib. Dem. 10683 6.92% (1)
David Maybery Bevan, UKIP 6619 4.29%
David Leonard Davies, Socialist Labour Party 5057 3.28%
Clive Bennett, British National Party 4714 3.05%
Keith Malcolm Ross, Green 3952 2.56%
David Philip Griffiths, Welsh Christian Party 1602 1.04%
Ronnie Job, TUSC 809 0.52%
John Stephen Morrissey, Communist Party of GB 464 0.30%
Totals 154381 (4 Seats)
*allocation filled from constituencies
Both the Green Party and the Welsh Nationalists are using social media to encourage Labour supporters to use their otherwise wasted vote for them. However, the table above shows that there is great danger from UKIP, a party which denies both climate change and Welsh identity. The Green vote is too far behind and the chances of a second seat for Plaid Cymru are remote. UKIP vote is on the increase according to the opinion polls, so the only safe switch is to the Liberal Democrats and Peter Black.

Peter Black launches energy-saving initiative
Peter Black today outlined the Welsh Liberal Democrat party's plans for a £100-a-year discount on Council Tax for households that improve the energy efficiency of their homes by two bands. This will have the effect of both encouraging a reduction in energy usage and giving support to hard pressed families by cutting their council tax bills.
Peter said: "Wales desperately needs to improve the energy efficiency of its houses, which are some of the most poorly insulated in western Europe, but too often the upfront cost puts families off getting that work done.
"Our plans will help ease that burden, ensuring families feel the benefit through a double bill cut: once on your Council Tax, and once on your energy bill.
"Welsh Liberal Democrats have the fresh ideas Wales needs to help people get on in life, as well as do our part to help tackle climate change."
