But it strikes me that all the candidates (so far) are all based along the M4 route:- Edwina from Gower, Carwyn from Bridgend and Huw from Merthyr.
Three places that feel very far away from those of us based along the A55…
Would a candidate from the north perhaps offer something different to the debate?

"But Merthyr IS in North Wales...."
Penarth isn't though!o
Where is this 'North Wales'? Is it a different country? In truth, it's a British construct to divide the nation. Like its associated South, West and Mid equivalents. Pretty successful too, by the looks of it.
I mean if a candidate comes from Ynys Môn, why can they represent Wrecsam better than someone from Llanidloes?
For me, all parts of Wales are equal. I would never use these lazy, imprecise terms, and neither should you. If you want a candidate from Conwy, say that. We know where it is and we can pronounce it, see.
The obvious question here is: "Who?"
Quality not geography.
Why not a Mid Wales candidate too? Except that would mean Alun Davies.
How about Lesley Griffiths then?
Lesley who - I agree quality is key
and stop making us a divided country
No one does it in England or Scotland ,stop reinforcing English propaganda.
It would be nice to see a fourth candidate though
