Wales goes to the polls in fraught times
A year after the Senedd election, Wales returns to the polls on 5 May to vote for those standing to be councillors across all of the country's 22 local authorities.

There are big challenges, like the terrible scenes in Ukraine, that will shape political debate during the election campaign.
Wales will soon be welcoming refugees fleeing the war and local councils will have a big part to play in helping to provide support and services for the new arrivals.
Rising cost of living pressures will also be an increasingly important political issue.
We are already noticing increased energy and food bills and while the war in Ukraine will have made these things worse, they would have been a big issue anyway because of other pressures in the world economy.
While local councils have little direct control over these pressures, they are on the front line of delivering support and help to people struggling to make ends meet.
And this is the first big electoral test for the political parties since the 2021 Senedd election.
What's at stake for them?
