Great to be out with the team today chatting with residents ahead of the Llangennech by-election

29/05/2026

Hello, I’m Craig Griffiths, and I’m proud to be standing as the Conservative candidate for the Llangennech and Bryn ward in the upcoming by-election on 25th June.

I’m local to the area, coming from a hardworking, working-class background, and I now help run our family logistics business. I live in Tumble, just 15 minutes up the road, with my wife and our two daughters.

I strongly believe that our villages are the heartbeat of the community. Places such as Llangennech are defined by the people and organisations that bring residents together — from the rugby club and community centre and library to the bowls club, Bryn Café, and The Bridge. These are a vital part of what makes our area special, and I believe we must work together to protect and support them.

I also believe that maintaining our local infrastructure is of huge importance. Llangennech is a busy through-road that needs proper investment and upkeep. Last month, Kemi Badenoch spoke about a “pothole patrol” initiative, and I believe practical measures like this can help keep our roads safer for everyone. We must also ensure that our footpaths and bridleways are kept clear and well maintained, so residents can enjoy the beautiful countryside around us and stay active outdoors.

Our rural communities and farms are equally important. Farming is at the heart of Carmarthenshire, and I am committed to supporting Welsh farmers and standing up for rural communities.

If there are any other issues that anybody has and concerns over, please feel free to contact me directly.

These are the priorities I share with local residents, and the issues I will work hard to champion if elected next month to serve on Carmarthenshire County Council.

Well, the votes are counted and whilst we didn't get the result we hoped for, I want to say a massive thank you to every single person who put their cross next to my name on Thursday. 5,853 of you believed in what we were trying to do — and that means the world to me 😊

We came agonisingly close — just around 2% short of taking a seat. That's a hard pill to swallow, but it makes every single one of those votes even more appreciated.

To the candidates who did get elected — A huge congratulations 👏 But the people of Carmarthenshire were watching and listening during this campaign, and they'll be holding you to your promises. Now is the time to deliver.

And to the brilliant candidates who, like me, just missed out — well done. You fought hard, you represented your communities with pride, and you should hold your heads high.

This campaign has been quite a journey — long days, long miles, and a lot of doors knocked across a very big constituency! But every conversation, every encouraging word, and every vote has been genuinely appreciated.

I also want to take a moment to thank my incredible family. Campaigns like this don't just ask something of the candidate — they ask something of the people standing behind them too. To my kids, who worked so hard alongside me during this campaign — I couldn't be prouder of you. You didn't have to do that, and the fact that you did means everything to me. I'm a very lucky Dad ❤️

Carmarthenshire is a special place, full of good people. It's been an honour to put myself forward to serve this community.

We'll see what the future holds — but for now, thank you. From the bottom of my heart 💙

Last day on the campaign trail 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

What a campaign it's been. Yesterday and Today we covered the final miles — Ammanford, Tycroes, St Clears, Laugharne and Pendine — and I couldn't have done it without John, Craig and Christian, who've been absolute legends these last couple of days.

Hundreds of conversations. Thousands of calling cards. Every door matters.

To everyone who's supported me throughout this campaign — thank you. Genuinely. From the bottom of my heart 💙

And tomorrow? WE CAN WIN a seat in Sir Gaerfyrddin.

The polls say so. The people on the doorstep say so. But it only happens if YOU vote.

Please lend me your vote tomorrow. Your vote WILL count. 🗳️

☀️ What a day to be out in Llandovery / Llanymddyfri!

Brilliant sunshine, brilliant people — and a town that reminds you exactly why Carmarthenshire is worth fighting for.

Castles, history, the birthplace of rugby in Wales… and residents who genuinely care about the future of their community.

I knocked on doors, had some great conversations, and even picked up a few tips on where the best coffee is 😄

If I missed you today — I'll be back tomorrow. This is your Senedd, and your voice matters.
