Open Party

Open Party People politics, not party politics. The official page of the Open Party. This page is a space for respectful engagement. We are open to everyone.

Abusive or discriminatory comments will be removed. Promoted by the Open Party, Kilver Court, BA4 5NF The Open Party has been designed with one aim - to make democracy better. We believe the talent and experience to lead rests not in the narrow confines of party membership, but in the breadth of the whole population. Our candidates come from the public, not from the party. This means we can search

the whole of society for the best - the whole pool, not just the 1.5% of the UK who are political party members. How We Work:
We support local people who wish to stand for election. Through open primaries, the public, not party members, choose the Open Party’s candidates. Our first pilot will run in the Newport area for the 2026 Senedd elections. Get Involved:

Thank you to everyone who voted, and congratulations to all successful Senedd candidates.

The Open Party’s mission has always been to make politics work for the whole country - and that doesn’t stop after election day.

We believe politicians should remain accountable to the public, with more transparency around what they vote for and how those decisions affect you.

Because you are the boss.

Don’t just live in a democracy. Do democracy.

In 27 years of the Senedd, only ONE elected representative has come from outside the political parties.

That means almost all political representation has come from a tiny fraction of the population.

It’s time to open up politics to the other 98.5% - the people with lived experience, talent, fresh ideas, and a real connection to their communities.

The Open Party exists to bring talented everyday people into the Senedd.

Candidates from the public.
Chosen by the public.

People politics, not party politics.

Teenagers need somewhere to go.

When youth clubs shut and buildings sit derelict, young people get left behind.

We need representatives who put youth provision back on the agenda.
